Over the summer, "United News" raised over UAH 42 million for the Defense Forces.

Over the summer, over UAH 42.6 million was raised as part of the announced initiatives. 

The fundraisers were held in the slots of all media companies producing the telethon: 1+1 Media, Starlight Media, Rada, We Are Ukraine, and Inter Media Group. 

The viewers of the United News most often supported drone fundraising: UAH 17 million 829 thousand was transferred over three months to purchase various types of drones (FPV, night, reconnaissance, etc.). The telethon audience also actively donated to purchase electronic warfare systems and repairs/purchase of vehicles for the Defense Forces (over UAH 5.5 million).

Furthermore, with our partner media and the audience, we raised UAH 10 million for the MAGURA V5 multi-purpose unmanned surface vehicle for the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine.

Since the beginning of the full-scale war, all telethon producers have united in implementing hundreds of large-scale fundraising campaigns for the needs of the Ukrainian Defense Forces and other social missions. This collective effort is an integral part of the telethon's functioning. 

In 2024 alone, the national telethon "United News" organized and held almost 900 fundraisers, raising almost UAH 170 million for Ukrainian soldiers.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to every telethon viewer for their systematic and regular support of our initiatives and prompt closure of the fundraisers. Your unwavering support brings Ukraine's victory closer, and your contributions are integral to helping the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
