We sent this to scouts in Kharkiv region today. Anti-cold mixtures, honey & gingerbreads for their place of deployment. Biscuits, jerky, goodies & desserts for when they are on missions. No soups and porridges because unfortunately they can't boil water when on missions.

In order to continue working towards the victory of Ukraine, the Ants need to stay fit and healthy. That's why it's important to take exercise breaks, especially during sedentary packaging work :)

This is how the youngest Ukrainians show their support to our defenders. At Ants Kitchen Hub we make sure to include a picture or a letter from kids in every box of food we send to the troops. Many of the kids who were drawing these pictures in 2014 are now soldiers themselves.

This unit's only vehicle was destroyed, so people from a local village used a horse cart to deliver water and food made by the Ants to the soldiers. These heroes are in a hard situation facing daily attacks.

We take compliance with sanitary norms seriously, that's why all our volunteers wash their hands thoroughly and wear gloves when they work with food. However, some gloves are almost transparent, so at first glance it may seem that people aren't wearing any when they actually are.
