Ukrainian comedian Mark Kutsevalov managed to collect 1,013,142 hryvnias in donations in just 8 days, living in a tent in the middle of the forest.

Nova Poshta reported this.

According to the story, the artist was collecting money for the Armed Forces of Ukraine for a joint initiative by Nova Poshta and Come Back Alive charity fund, aiming to support air defense systems –  ​​"We'll jam their signals and leave them in a daze!"

It is reported that these funds will go to electronic warfare (EW) and reconnaissance equipment to protect air defense systems from Russian UAVs, FPV drones and missiles.

During his forest challenge, Mark:

•  Befriended wild boars and roe deer;
• Caught shrimp;
• Streamed on Twitch and hosted guests.

"As a result, the comedian collected 1,013,142 UAH! We doubled this amount, and the total was 2,026,284 UAH, which were sent to our joint collection with the Come Back Alive fund," the company emphasized.

The fundraising effort is still in progress, with 65% of the target amount left to be collected. You can join by following the link.

For reference:

It should be noted that the famous Ukrainian historian and professor of the Ukrainian Catholic University Yaroslav Hrytsak contributed to support Ukraine's armed forces by donating 562,379 hryvnias [almost €12,000 – ed.].

As reported, Ukrainians are increasingly donating to "jars" [a "jar," also known as a "piggy bank," is a unique savings account that clients can create for themselves, their family, or their friends. It uses gamification elements to help accumulate funds for a specific purchase – ed.] rather than for large foundations and charitable organizations. In addition, the official list of volunteers in Ukraine has increased 1.5 times since the beginning of the year – to 10 thousand people.

Since the beginning of full-scale Russian aggression, over 10 million people, precisely 10,432,160 participants, have used the Monobank platform to contribute to the Ukrainian military effort.
