Students from the Kyiv School of Economics (KSE) have presented a medevac helicopter for the Main Intelligence Department, which they assembled as part of the Donate To Evacuate initiative by KSE Foundation and DefDev. The design is based on a camouflage pattern featuring the names of everyone who donated over $100.

The pattern with names was created and applied by well-known Ukrainian calligraphers, the Lopukhina sisters, and their team. Now, the names of all those who supported the Donate To Evacuate initiative literally protect the wounded heroes.

KSE students assembled a pair of MI-2 AM-1 medevac helicopters for the Main Intelligence Department of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. This is the fastest on-field transport for saving lives, arriving approximately 15 minutes after a request.

"To assist the military is the duty of every conscious Ukrainian business, and we are grateful to everyone for their support and belief in our initiative. We are also proud that those who believe in our future and support our education have helped us realize this seemingly incredible idea," - KSE students.

"In this war, we have no spare moments. Thanks to everyone who understood this immediately and promptly supported the fundraising. The helicopter has reduced the evacuation time for the wounded, thereby increasing their chances of returning home alive," - representative of the Main Intelligence Department of the Ministry of Defense.
