Yuriy Biriukov, ambassador of the NGO "Community Matters":
"When you plan to spend almost 10 million hryvnias in the morning... 10,000,000 (with zeros is more beautiful), morning coffee is even tastier somehow.
So today we are paying for the purchase of 1000 helmets! Yay! Yay!
Yesterday, the bank checked the contract and all the invoices and gave the go-ahead to buy the currency. There was only one small problem - we were almost three million short of the required amount. It was funny - every 15-20 minutes we called the bank to get the documents, and they were happy to say that the amount of the deficit had decreased. Sometimes by ten thousand, sometimes by thirty. In any case, we will somehow get a new loan today and send the payment, because there are fewer and fewer helmets in Europe."
We dedicate a separate paragraph to those who send money to PayPal - it works! There is a lot of fuss with PayPal to card, card to account, but since the fees have been canceled, there are no losses. In three days, I have already received 700 thousand hryvnias. Based on the reports, I study the places of high concentration of assistants. The USA, Canada, the UK, the European Union...
It's a cheerful fast, right? And everything seems to be fine, right? And we will definitely win, right (no question mark here)! But... why are we buying helmets with your money again? Okay, after the victory.
