To the Day of Dignity and Freedom of Ukraine, the crowdfunding platform bekind.ua and the international community for Wtech women leaders are organizing the Wtech Freedom Run charity run to raise funds for 300 sets of winter uniforms for women in the Armed Forces. The races will take place on November 19-21 in more than 10 cities worldwide. You can also join the race online.
This is reported by the press service of the organizers.
More than 50,000 women serve in the Armed Forces: paramedics, female officers, tankers, snipers, and many other professions. About 5,000 of them are now on the front lines. However, despite the significant number, some wear men's uniforms.
On November 19-21, Wtech Freedom Run charity runs will be held worldwide for our female defenders to raise UAH 2 million for women's winter uniforms. This is the third race in the series, the first two relays were held in August-October, and people ran in 87 settlements around the world.
