s1mple donates large sum of money to support Ukraine
The Ukrainian AWPer has donated $100.000 that will be used to purchase an ambulance in Ukraine.
Last week, Natus Vincere announced their cooperation with UNITED24, which is an initiative of the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, for collection charitable donations to support Ukraine.
With the announcement, NAVI revealed that their star AWPer, Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev had already made the first donation to UNITED24 in the amount of $100.000. The money that s1mple donated to UNITED24 will be used to purchase an ambulance that will be able to save someone’s life.
Not only are NAVI aiming to raise funds to help Ukraine, but are now also preparing to host a big charity tournament with other esports clubs and players around the world.
“This is definitely our most important partnership this year. I am sure our other partners will agree with that statement, support us, and join the initiative. UNITED24 is doing important things for Ukraine. We are glad we have the opportunities and resources to help them.” – Oleksandr Pavlenko, CMO NAVI.
“Each contribution on the Medical Aid through the UNITED24 fundraising platform means dozens of ambulances, artificial lung ventilation systems, and medical equipment, which will save thousands of Ukrainian lives. We're grateful to Oleksandr Kostylev and the best gamers around the world that will help Ukrainian medics save lives and support the medical system throughout the war. This is a great example of how business or community representatives can bring us closer to victory" — Deputy Prime Minister — Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov.
