Ondra, originally from Ukraine, is a talented photographer from FAMU. He would still be working on his art, but he was drafted into the army and now evacuates wounded soldiers from the front line as a medic in extreme conditions. His unit lacks an off‑road vehicle for safe transport. Through a fundraiser under the Resistance Support Club, I want to buy him a modified off‑road car so he can reach the wounded faster and more safely. 

My former classmate from the Department of Photography at FAMU, known by the call sign Ondra, is originally from Ukraine. I knew him as a talented photographer and artist — modest, friendly, and always thoughtful in his work. Shortly after finishing school, he received a draft order and had to join the army, so today, instead of photographing, he’s saving lives. He serves as a combat medic in a National Guard unit. He evacuates wounded soldiers directly from the front line and treats them in conditions that keep getting worse — drone attacks are increasingly frequent and dangerous, and the roads used to transport the wounded are more and more destroyed. Another harsh winter is coming, making survival near the Ukrainian front even more difficult. Reaching wounded soldiers quickly, safely, and providing urgent care requires not only courage but also proper equipment.

Ondra’s unit is currently struggling with the fact that they often have no vehicle to evacuate the wounded and must ask other units on the same stretch of the front for a “taxi.” They lack a reliable off‑road vehicle capable of moving through shattered terrain and ensuring safe evacuation. Unfortunately, this shortage of adequate equipment is nothing unusual — Russian attacks continuously destroy both military and civilian infrastructure.
