What UNITED24 does

UNITED24 is the official fundraising platform of Ukraine, launched by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on May 5, 2022, in direct response to Russia's full-scale invasion. Operated by the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine with technical administration by state enterprise "DIIA," the platform enables global one-click donations distributed across five ministry-directed programs: Defense, Humanitarian Demining, Medical Aid, Rebuild Ukraine, and Education and Science. All funds are transferred directly to National Bank of Ukraine accounts and allocated to the relevant ministries with no platform commission or operational deductions. Transparency is enforced through weekly income/expenditure reports audited by Deloitte (Defense, Medical Aid) and BDO (Education and Science, Rebuild Ukraine, Humanitarian Demining).

The core technology comprises a web-based donation portal at u24.gov.ua and the U24 Mobile Application (iOS/Android), which enables direct donor-to-drone-unit funding under the Drone Line initiative targeting five elite unmanned systems units (Fenix, Rarog, Magyar Birds, 414th Separate Unmanned Systems Brigade) with real-time mission updates, monthly subscriptions, and donor call-sign personalization. Named campaigns include Sky Defense, Sky Sentinel (an AI-controlled air defense turret nicknamed "Shahed Catcher"), ALLIES OF STEEL (ground robotic platforms), the Scott Kelly Ambulance Fundraiser, Saving Sight (ophthalmic surgical equipment), Merry Kidsmas (preschool shelter modernization), Bring Light Back (school generators), and Every Transfer Matters (embedded remittance-tied giving with TransferGo and Visa). Cumulative fundraising reached $3,699,342,438 between May 2022 and July 2026, with $200,549,011 raised in Q1 2026 and $89,454,890 in Q2 2026.

The business model is purely charitable donation collection — there is no platform fee, no commission, and no monetization layer; the entity does not generate traditional revenue. GTM combines direct-to-consumer web/app donation flows, ambassador-led community fundraising across entertainment, sports, academia, and journalism, and event-driven goal-oriented campaigns. Operational expenses are absorbed by corporate operational supporters (Deloitte, Avrora, ACTIVITIS) and a broad partner roster (Microsoft, Visa, Uber, Balenciaga, AWT Bavaria, TransferGo, Pipedrive, Grammarly, Bayer, Schneider Electric, among others), allowing 100% of donor contributions to pass through to their intended programs. As a state-operated portal established by Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 516, UNITED24 has no private equity, venture capital, or individual ownership interests.

Scale indicators33 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Emerging players

• Direct Relief: Large humanitarian medical aid organization with significant Ukraine activity (delivering ambulances, medicines, hospital supplies). Comparable in the Medical Aid program area and donor transparency model, but specialized in medical rather than multi-vertical.
• GiveDirectly: Charity providing direct cash transfers to households in low-income and crisis-affected contexts. Comparable in the direct-to-beneficiary transparency model that UNITED24 mirrors with direct ministry/unit routing, but operates in different geographies and crisis types.
• Patriot Defence (Ukrainian Volunteer Fund): Volunteer-driven Ukrainian organization providing tactical medicine training and equipment to the Armed Forces. Comparable as a smaller-scale Ukraine-focused donation platform, though narrower in program scope (medical/training focus) and lacks the government mandate.

Direct peers

• Come Back Alive: Ukrainian charitable foundation focused on funding military equipment, training, and technology for the Armed Forces. Most directly comparable peer — same wartime Ukrainian donation context, similar defense-focused program areas, and overlapping donor audience for direct military support.
• Razom for Ukraine: Large U.S.-based 501(c)(3) supporting Ukraine through humanitarian aid, medical supplies, and reconstruction. Directly comparable as a Ukraine-focused donation platform with multiple program verticals and significant diaspora-driven fundraising.
• GlobalGiving: Global crowdfunding marketplace connecting donors to vetted nonprofit projects across geographies and causes. Comparable in model — hosting multiple Ukraine-related campaigns with transparency reporting — though operates as a broader multi-cause platform rather than Ukraine-exclusive.
• Nova Ukraine: U.S.-registered nonprofit providing humanitarian aid, medical equipment, and educational support to Ukraine. Comparable as a multi-vertical fundraising organization channeling global donor dollars into Ukraine program areas.

Broad incumbents

• GoFundMe: Largest consumer crowdfunding platform globally with significant Ukraine-war fundraising activity. Comparable as a mass-market donation infrastructure provider, but lacks UNITED24's direct ministry coordination, government mandate, and program-specific allocation.
• International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC): Global humanitarian organization operating in conflict zones including Ukraine, raising funds from governments, corporates, and individuals. Comparable in humanitarian mandate and wartime fundraising, but as a neutral multi-conflict organization rather than Ukraine-exclusive.
• UNICEF: UN agency delivering humanitarian aid to children in conflict-affected countries including Ukraine. Comparable in mobilizing global donations for Ukraine program verticals (especially Education and Science), but with broader global mandate.
