The UNITED24 platform is a reflection of such support, because people from 110 countries donate towards the needs of Ukraine using it. Today we ask them to become Friends of Ukraine. To congratulate Ukraine on the Independence Day and sign up for a regular charitable donation via UNITED24, for a symbolic amount of $24 per month."
