The Raven Group of the Ukrainian Volunteer Army, part of the Territorial Defense Forces, needs a vehicle for various combat purposes. They need at least $5000 to get a halfway decent one.

Nova Kakhovka-born artist Maxim Kilderov has been working to support Ukraine since the first day of the full-scale war. Under occupation, he cofounded a volunteer network to get food and medical supplies to Nova Kakhovka's most vulnerable residents. He had to leave Nova Kakhovka for his own safety after he spray-painted a burnt out, abandoned russian IFV and caught the attention of the occupiers. Since then, he's poured most of his time and energy into supporting the UAF through art sales and fundraising.

We and Kilderov want to help Raven close their collection, so we're raffling this Blank of Black sticker set signed by none other than the man, the myth, the meme: Chief of Defense Intelligence of Ukraine Kyrylo Budanov.

The sticker set we're raffling

Kilderov painted Blank of Black after he escaped occupation, as part of an exhibition in the Kyiv's Lavra Art Gallery. Blank of Black is currently on exhibit in the Ukrainian Revival exhibition at UNESCO in Monaco.

Tickets are $5 and you can buy as many as you wish! Givebutter does limit you to 10 per transaction, though.

Please note

Though the event description mentions a livestream, there will be none. And while we do deeply appreciate those of you who choose to donate as well as buying raffle tickets, we want to make it clear that donations are not required to enter the raffle.

The winner will be drawn and notified on Monday, July 1.

At the one day we will wake up not because of explosions but because of passion and desire.
On the blank of black we will build our yellow and blue.
