Questo è un veterano militare brasiliano tornato in Ucraina per aiutare grazie ai donatori che hanno finanziato il suo volo. Ha detto “Non accetto la codardia che la Russia ha fatto”. Abbiamo molti volontari qualificati che cercano di andare in Ucraina per aiutare ma hanno bisogno di voli! Guarda i commenti su come aiutare!

This is Paratrooper, a Brazilian volunteer that we recently helped return to Ukraine. This is what he had to say about his experience:

“My name is Paratrooper, Brazilian and I am in Ukraine for the third time, I came here in 2023, I served in the International Legion, I stayed for 5 months, I returned to Ukraine in March 2024 with the help of ProtectaVolunteer paying for my ticket, I have been here for a year, I returned to Brazil on vacation and today I am returning to Ukraine once again with the help of ProtectaVolunteer, who has been doing an excellent job. I am fighting for Ukraine as an ideal, because I do not accept the cowardice that Russia has been doing. I came to put into practice what I learned in the Paratrooper Infantry Brigade.”

Paratrooper was able to fly thanks to donors who helped cover the cost of his ticket. For South Americans the cost of getting to Ukraine is often prohibitive. Their flights are expensive and their salaries in their home countries are not high. That is how you can help! If you would like to help cover the cost of a flight, this is how:

1. Donate any amount to the flight fund. Go to [protectavolunteer.com](http://protectavolunteer.com) and choose Flight Fund on the Paypal. All amounts add up. We use these donations to cover the fees for airline mile tickets and to purchase tickets with cash when necessary.

2. Do you have airline miles? Sign up with your miles on the same website. We will match you with a volunteer who needs help! All miles are helpful but you must have enough to cover the full cost of a flight.
