Soldiers for Soldiers

'Soldiers for Soldiers' is for military units who need to fundraise their own vehicle. 

Over time we will provide campaigns for military men here.

This is a new concept by Car for Ukraine to assist the military. It has been driven by the enormous number of requests which we receive. Saying 'no' to requests is a poor option.

We know it is very difficult to fundraise while you are also fighting an existential war, so please be generous?

For more details on this program or to sign up for your own unit's campaign, please email: [email protected]

The Goal of the 'Soldiers for Soldiers' Campaign

The campaign starts with a goal for 1 armoured battle-ready pickup costing EUR11,500 

We are sourcing all vehicles around 2012-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced. These are some of the greatest and the most reliable pickups possible to be on the frontline in Ukraine.

Who will receive the vehicle?

The first unit which is fundraising its own vehicle is 'Poryv', the Unmanned Systems Battalion of the 33rd Separate Assault Brigade

Custom branding

For €2,500 we will place your custom sticker on one side of a truck.

It could be your text, message, logo, name, or your country's flag.

"Your truck" at the frontline

The average cost of an armored pickup we deploy to the frontline is €11,000. If you contribute with that amount all the custom branding options will be yours. Plus you'll receive a personalized reporting about the truck, where it ends up as well as some surprise gifts from us.

On top of that, you may personally deliver the truck UK ---> Ukraine, getting it to our workshop for further refitting and preparation for the frontline. Or you can also come to Lviv directly when the truck is ready for deployment Lviv ---> Frontline and hand over the keys to the warriors personally, creating a lifetime experience for yourself together with us.

What Makes C4U Trucks a Perfect Balance?

Short answer: We spend money on what really matters and save on everything else to deliver more trucks every time.

• Frontline pickups: C4U has provided 1000+ frontline pickup trucks since 2022, with funds raised EUR 9M (September, 2026).
• C4U deploys mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, dated 2010-2017, with low mileage, fully serviced and upgraded to last 20-30,000 km without technical issues.
• These pickups are most favoured by Ukraine military due to being some the toughest and most reliable pickups for the frontline in Ukraine.
• Armour for life: C4U is one of a few groups that focus on making vehicles battle-ready, not just cars. One key element for every truck that has a risk of being hit: we armour them with 8mm steel plates around vital places of humans (neck, knees, head, body) as well as around the vehicles' vital places - such as engine parts, radiator, turbo, accumulator to keep the vehicle moving even after being shelled.
• Direct support to Ukraine: Spending your donor dollars inside Ukraine supports the survival of Ukraine as a nation and develops in-country skills and capabilities. Engineers doing mechanical work and armouring vehicles, visual designers, patch and pin makers, and other paid personnel are all in Ukraine.
• Value for donor money: The main personnel with C4U are all volunteers working pro-bono.  Our costs are kept to a minimum (no marketing, paid photographers, event planners). The currency value of UAH is 40x lower than EU compared to USD.
