How are they used?
They are used by Ukrainians, who repurpose lithium-ion batteries from single-use vapes to power essential equipment. The batteries can also be used for power banks, to power any technology, which is particularly important in the affected areas, where there is no electricity.

‍How are they transported to Ukraine?
‍We use a reliable courier, with whom we have been working since the beginning of a full-scale invasion. He delivers aid from us to Ukraine every weekend.

‍Where to donate them?
Just bring the cigarettes to any of these locations. Alternatively, contact us for the address for postage:
