On August 24, Sprava Hromadas and the Poroshenko Foundation celebrated with friends - with those who help us help the army. Together with those who always come to the rescue whenever we write "we don't have enough money for fuel/trailers/laptops/trucks".
Unfortunately, not everyone could come, not everyone could get to Kyiv - some work, some are abroad, some decided not to spend money on a ticket but to give an extra penny to the army. For all those who could not attend in person, we did the first thing: we opened our solemn lottery for everyone, not only for those who came to the event. And now we would like to do the second thing for these people: to tell and show how our celebration went.
We made a small impromptu exhibition of our help for the army. Here's what you could see on it:
- Our laundry and shower complexMore than 200 of them have already been manufactured and are constantly being sent to the Armed Forces of Ukraine to ensure hygiene, cleanliness, health and good mood.
- Our mobile tire fitting complexwhich helps soldiers "change their shoes" anywhere, even in places where tire fitting and service stations are not available.
- Our mobile car repair shopwhich also helps to repair cars anywhere and anytime.
- The repair container is our newest development, a less mobile but even better equipped version of the auto repair shop.
- Command and control module - is our unique product for the needs of aviation and now also for the Special Forces units, which allows you to work and rest anywhere in the front, rear, or "foreign travel".
- Control machine for the Poseidon UAVThe system helps fighters to appear at the right time at the right place on the frontline and then disappear before the enemy can strike.
- Poseidon itself could also be seen.
- The "I-Petri" control machine is a modification of our control machinesadapted to the needs of the RBM units.
- You could also see the I-Petri itself, or rather its silhouette, because it is very secretive.
- DAF YA trucks in several modifications.
- DAF Leyland trucks in several modifications.
- Foden elevator - a mighty giant that can transport containers and armored vehicles.
- ...on which the Land Rover was standing, and the bravest could walk around the truck and look at it.
- The Foden fuel tanker is a novelty that even most of the Community Matters team hasn't seen, and in a few days it will be at the front to supply our fighters with fuel for tanks, trucks and generators.
- Excavator - is a fully Ukrainian product from the TDC Group, whose products have been contracted by the Poroshenko Foundation until the end of 2024, and as soon as another excavator comes off the assembly line, it is sent to the front to build fortifications - maybe to the east, or maybe on a "foreign business trip."
- Water trailers are a real lifesaver for units that do not have access to clean water.
- FPV drones - of various modifications.
- Mavic UAV - several options.
- "Vanilla sugar" - is a scarce and coveted commodity that has a stable queue of applicants and saves lives.
- The Shatro is beautiful and mysterious.
- ATVs.
By the way, all this could be seen, touched, poked with fingers, climbed into the truck's cab and gently turned the steering wheel, sat at the UAV operator's workplace, etc. - we are not a museum, and we love our supporters and trust them, and it seems they didn't break anything :)
And the children (and some adult children) had the opportunity to ride an ATV.
What else happened at the event? A concert by the Ot Vinta band. Lots of selfies with Poroshenko and some bloggers. And ice cream!
Oh, and the lottery. Let us remind you of our winners:

- Serhiy from Kyiv (ticket 1442) won an art object, a chest from Marina Poroshenko.

But we hope that this is not a complete list of winners, and that everyone who came to our event won a good mood and pride in how much we all did to win over these two and a half years.
We thank everyone who came; we thank everyone who would have liked to come but could not. We thank everyone who supports A Matter of Communities. We thank everyone who participated in our charity lottery and thanks to whom we raised more than UAH 300,000 for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
We hope to see all of you again, preferably at the celebration of our victory in this war, and preferably as soon as possible.
