This was made possible by a fundraising campaign to support Russian Army servicemen at Uralvagonzavod enterprises. The initiator was Vladimir Koryakov, a tool maker in the UVZ pressing and welding shop.
“Significant funds were raised in just ten days. 36 companies from 14 regions of our great country participated in the fundraiser. More than 30,000 employees raised as much money as they could. Voluntarily, from the heart, from the bottom of their hearts,” , said the deputy general director of concern for the staff Sergei Osipov.
The funds raised for the soldiers were used to purchase special winter clothing, personal protective armor, tactical first aid kits, gloves, tactical vests, tactical flasks, flashlights, knee and elbow pads, hats, bandanas, thermal underwear, sleeping bags, sleep and much more. .
Confectionery products from leading Russian factories were purchased for the children of Donbass.
