Exclusive Football Gift Initiative from AWT Bavaria & UNITED24

Every day, for 4 years and counting, children across Ukraine live through russia’s constant aerial attacks. Childhood should be a time of innocence, growth and wonder. But for many Ukrainian children, that reality has been stolen by war. 

That’s why, together with AWT Bavaria—partner of both UNITED24 and the Ukrainian national football team—we are launching a project to support the protection of Ukraine’s skies and the people beneath them, with AWT offering exclusive gifts.

Children are the future of every nation—the next generation of strikers, defenders, captains, and fans in the stands. But every day, russia steals more of that future. 

Now, instead of listening for the referee’s whistle, they instinctively listen for the whistle of missiles overhead. Where once they cheered under stadium lights, they now run toward the dim glow of shelters. And after practice, a hot shower is replaced by washing in the cold and the dark—because russia deliberately targets critical infrastructure.

Your donation helps save lives and gives Ukrainian children something incredibly important: the chance to keep dreaming, playing, and growing up under safer skies. 

Because every save matters—both on the pitch and in real life. 

From March 22 until April 22, everyone who donates at least $24 will be eligible to receive a special keepsake: a Team Ukraine jersey from #16 Vitalii Mykolenko, signed by the national team after a winning match. Signatures will include Andriy Shevchenko and Oleksandr Zinchenko, both ambassadors of UNITED24.

Everyone who donates at least $10 will get a chance to receive a football signed by the national team. 

Step onto the pitch with us—join the initiative today.
