The Ukrainian cloud infrastructure provider Tucha announced the launch of a charitable initiative in support of the Ukrainian armed forces – for donations, it offers a course on training DevOps practices. Tuition fees in full will be transferred directly to the bank account of one of the fighters, open for collection on an SUV.
Collection details
Now Tucha is helping to raise money for an SUV for an air defense unit that will destroy enemy helicopters. During their professional activities, the team has accumulated a lot of experience in the DevOps industry, so the idea arose to involve this idea also to speed up the collection, notes Tucha co-founder and CTO Vladimir Melnik.
We help the air defense unit of the ***th ***th OPGBR (the guys again asked me to remove the exact data). The battery has been working in the sector in the East of Ukraine for a long time and moves a lot between Kramatorsk, Bakhmut and Avdiivka. Unfortunately, wheeled vehicles cannot withstand these loads.
Our defenders really need this vehicle to perform combat missions, because it helps to quickly take a position, strike and quickly retreat to a safer location. It will also facilitate the delivery of equipment, medicines, etc. Not only the successful completion of combat missions, but also the life of our soldiers depends on the availability of a reliable vehicle.
