"They are the ones who should be standing here. They can't. They're working." Leleka Foundation has received the Certificate of Merit of the Order of Saint Panteleimon — Ukraine's highest civil award in healthcare — for humanitarian service. The award belongs to the medics. #FrontlineMedics

Another packed backpack, another pair of hands we trust. This one went to Olha, who runs the medical post of the 31st Brigade of Ukraine's National Guard. In her hands it doesn't stay in her hands — it gets checked, assigned, and sent forward with her medics. #FrontlineMedic #NotesFromTheFront

8,000 pieces of tactical medical equipment: tourniquets, hypothermia blankets, chest seals, pulse oximeters, drag stretchers. More than $26,000 from @novaukraine.org — already out of our Kyiv warehouse and in the hands of medics on the front. #NovaUkraine #LelekaFoundation

Notes from the Front 💛 These photos came from medics of the 54th Separate Mechanized Brigade, named after Hetman Ivan Mazepa. A Leleka backpack, drag stretchers, and tactical medical supplies are now in their hands on the Donetsk front, where fighting has not let up for months. #FrontlineMedic

On 11 September, CU Theater — Ireland’s first Ukrainian theatre — presented readings of two Ukrainian plays at Trinity College Dublin: The Woman with the Fridge by Marta Shyiko and Victoria’s Little Secrets by Alina Sarnatska. 65 people attended, and €650 was raised for Leleka and frontline medics.

Take a closer look at what’s inside a combat medic’s bag. 💛 No standard kit exists — every medic builds their own. But this is the base our Ukrainian team packs by hand in Kyiv: tools to stop bleeding, stabilize the wounded, and buy the minutes that save a life.

Leleka Foundation @leleka.care · 09/09/2026
The reports we value most come from our medics. This photo is from Olha, a senior frontline medic, with a fully equipped Leleka backpack. Inside is everything she needs to treat the wounded in a critical moment — packed by our Ukrainian team and now where it belongs. #FrontlineMedic

You usually see our drag stretchers finished, in photos from the front. This time, our Ukrainian team visited the production and filmed the process. From there, the stretchers go to our Kyiv office and then, on request, to frontline medics who rely on them when every second counts.

Leleka Foundation @leleka.care · 04/09/2026
The smallest thing in a medic’s bag might save a limb. Every month, our Ukrainian team procures universal splints — one for every frontline medic’s backpack we equip. When a fracture happens under fire, this is what a medic reaches for. Small enough to forget, vital enough to change an outcome.

Meet Victoria Talkington — one of Leleka’s steadfast donors. A Ukrainian flag hangs in her home, signed by frontline medics — an unexpected gift that made her cry. She came to Ukraine not through heritage, but conviction: the invasion was wrong, and she could help. Thank you, Victoria. 💙💛

We continue introducing our Ukrainian team. Meet Vadym Abramov. Every day, he and one colleague pack and ship Leleka’s parcels to medics — $200–230K worth each month. He also receives and unloads large medical deliveries and keeps our Kyiv office “workhorse,” the tireless green van, on the road.

Received, unloaded, and headed to the front. Our Ukraine team received another Leleka shipment from the US — 10,000+ units of tactical medicine: chest seals, gauze, bandages, thermal blankets, IO access devices & more. Dollars raised in America → gear in medics’ hands. #FrontlineMedics #Ukraine

Meet Lesia Mokrousova. In March 2022, she stood in line at the enlistment office with her son. A deputy director at a private clinic, she was sent to the Irpin military hospital as a nurse. In 2026, she transferred to a frontline unit and now serves as a paramedic on the Lyman front. #FrontlineMedic

Russia brings only death and destruction, erasing peaceful Ukrainian life. The world must see it and act. Silence is a choice. So is looking away. Leleka stands with the medics who run toward the wreckage. Stand with them. Donate. Share the truth.

💔 Another morning of loss for Ukraine. Russia’s missile attack on Kyiv and the Kyiv region killed 17 civilians and injured 40+ others. Homes, warehouses, logistics centers, and a postal depot were destroyed. These were civilian targets. 🕯️ Eternal memory to those killed

Meet Oleksii Polishchuk — senior field medic, and one of three brothers who all now are protecting Ukraine on the frontline. He is only 25. A police officer from Cherkasy, two years ago he volunteered to join a unit of the National Police — the "Liut" (Fury) Brigade. #StandWithUkraine

Meet Liliia Bondarenko, a doctor who has never stopped helping since the Maidan. As Leleka’s Kyiv office manager, she keeps frontline shipments moving. “Wake up, smile at yourself. We’ll cry later — for now there’s work to do.” Support us and help keep this work going. #Ukraine #FrontlineMedics

On the front line, every second — and every gram — counts. One of the most-requested items from combat medics is the tactical medical pouch. Light, compact, quick to reach under fire — and packed with essentials that can mean the difference between life and death. 💙 Help us equip more medics.

“The hardest skill isn’t placing a tourniquet. It’s knowing when to act — and making the right call in seconds.” Victoria, Chief Medical Officer of Ukraine’s 3rd Army Corps, explains how drones changed evacuation, why medics are targeted, and how Ukraine is reinventing combat medicine. #Leleka

Notes from the Front 📍 When a medic writes to us that our supplies helped save a brother-in-arms — that message belongs to you as much as to us. You made it possible. Together with the medics of Ukraine's Defense Forces — thank you for your support. 💙💛 #FrontlineMedics #StandWithUkraine

Every time Americans stand with Ukraine, it brings us joy. Since the full-scale invasion, our friends in Arizona — led by Yuriy Melnyk — have delivered tens of thousands of tactical medicine supplies to our medics. And they're not stopping. Thank you 💙 #Arizona #SupportUkraine #FrontlineMedics

After medical backpacks, the item frontline medics ask us for most is the drag stretcher. Last month alone, our Kyiv team delivered 100+ to Ukraine's defenders — to carry the wounded across ground no vehicle can reach. Support Leleka, help us to deliver more. #Ukraine #Leleka

To our Ukrainian team — thank you, again and again. A strike hit our Kyiv office last month. A day before, they'd unloaded and then delivered 14,000+ units of tac-med (~$70K) bought in the US thanks to you. Torn walls, broken windows — they didn't stop. #Leleka #FrontlineMedics #TacMed
