L’inarrestabile zio Hrysha, 77 anni, volontario costretto su una sedia a rotelle fin da quando era giovane, raccoglie fondi per l’esercito ucraino. Il “secchio” della sua donazione sarà ora esposto nel museo di Kherson!

Volunteer Hryhoriy Yanchenko, 77, is originally from Kherson. But now he traveled all over Ukraine to raise money for Ukrainian defenders. This report is from the time when he was back in his hometown, and people were so happy to see him. 

“Uncle Hrisha is the resilience of our people of Kherson, especially when the Russian military was here. Despite everything, he remains the most inspiring,” says Kherson resident Olena.

“I’m glad to see him because he is the greatest patriot of Kherson. I trust him like no one else. Since 2014, he’s been raising money to help our military. He used to sit near the ‘Factory’ [In Kherson -ed.]. And when the occupation began, he started riding around playing Ukrainian songs, unafraid of the Russian military. Tears come to my eyes when I see him. When I read that he wasn’t around, it made me sad. I was waiting for him to return to Kherson,” says Liudmila.

Uncle Hrisha says that during the occupation of Kherson, he went on this route every day.

“You understand, it was always scary, every morning when I left. Because you always leave on your route but aren’t sure you’ll return. So it was always scary. It’s not scary for those who just lie at home on the couch and talk about the occupation and other things. But I still worked towards our victory,” he says.

“Each time [when returning to Kherson – ed.] the city becomes more battered, with many damaged houses. I understand that they [Russians – ed.] can’t capture Kherson but can make the city resemble Bakhmut, Mariupol, and all the cities they couldn’t capture. It’s very difficult to accept this; every time you come, one building is destroyed, then another,” said the volunteer.

Hryhoriy Yanchenko says that during this visit to Kherson, he has another goal – to donate an exhibit to the Museum of Resistance – a bucket he used to collect donations between 2014 and now. “This bucket is very symbolic,” says Hrisha. 

Hryhoriy Yanchenko will be in Kherson for a few days. He says he’s already expected in Kropyvnytskyi and will then head to eastern Ukraine.

“If you stay in one place, donations decrease. So I decided at the beginning of this year, since January, to travel around the cities. My friends sometimes say, ‘Oh, you’ve gone on a journey!’ Well, journey or not, but I support two brigades. Last time, I delivered 25 FPV drones, 15 to one and 10 to the other. It all depends on donations. Besides drones, I also deliver Starlinks, medicine, and various consumables – plastic coverings,insulation,” says the man.

Overall, Hryhoriy Yanchenko has visited 21 cities in Ukraine. He says that since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, he has managed to raise about 3.5 million hryvnias for the needs of the Defense Forces, and since 2014 – nine million altogether.

“Sometimes I feel like saying: that’s it, I’m done. You understand, I’m 77 years old, and it’s very difficult to travel by train, bus, or minibus. But still, in the evening, you think one thing, and in the morning, you wake up, and your perspective has changed. You think: how are those soldiers standing there day and night, every hour? So, you keep working. When the left bank is liberated, I’ll go there too; I won’t miss that opportunity. If I have the chance, I’ll definitely be on the left bank. And Skadovsk, Zaliznyi Port, Novovorontsovka, Henichesk – I’ll visit everywhere,” says Uncle Hrisha.
