Cossacks’ Forge
Help Supply Materials Needed On The Front
Staples (Скоби)
Burners (Буржуйки)
One of our main partnerships, Cossacks’ Forge is a Ukrainian nonprofit volunteer group that is made up of craftspeople who produce supplies for the military. We help purchase the raw materials needed for the production of supplies. We also help volunteers reach the forge and other workshops to help with production.
How Are These Items Used By The Military
Staples- They are the binding agent used when reinforcing bunkers and trenches with wooden logs. To build a single 3x3 meter bunker with wooden support beams it takes approximately 350 staples.
Burners- These items are crucial during the winter seasons, as it allows those close to the front to heat their living spaces, cook their food, dry their clothes, and prevent cold weather injuries. Larger ones can use wood for heating, and smaller ones can use trench candles.
