Cheka's legacy in action: $19,000 raised to support the Hospitallers
On April 25, 2025, the Hospitallers Medical Battalion's base in Pavlohrad, Dnipropetrovsk region, was destroyed in a russian drone strike. Overnight, the place that had served as a gathering and deployment point for medics since 2015 where they trained, equipped, and headed out to save lives ceased to exist. Vital medical equipment and vehicles were lost in the attack. In response, we launched a memorial fundraiser to honor the life and legacy of Iryna "Cheka" Tsybukh, a paramedic, warrior, and unshakable force for good. Together, we raised $19,000 to help rebuild what was lost.
