About the appflame foundation

From the start of the full-scale invasion, the appflame team started to help.

In the first months of the full-scale invasion, we established the appflame Voluntary Service to raise funds to support our team and the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The first funds we collected involved buying drones for surveillance, vehicles, copters, medications, and more. We didn’t stop there. The Voluntary Service gained momentum; we joined major projects to assist the Armed Forces, and started our own.

Over time, this initiative became a significant story about contributing to the country’s defense — the appflame foundation,, a story about how we can contribute to our country’s future by uniting for a common goal. Now, we continue to act. Uniting efforts with everyone willing to help and making our contribution as beneficial as possible.

How we support the Armed Forces of Ukraine

over 12 million hryvnias were raised and donated for the needs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
more than 50 requests from the military have been fulfilled since the beginning of the full-scale invasion;
we have strengthened the Armed Forces of Ukraine by training captains, providing drones for aerial surveillance, vehicles, night vision devices, etc.

“We believe in our victory and strive to bring it closer.

We do everything to ensure our military has everything they need on the battlefield. We believe that the energy of each individual brings victory closer, every blood donation saves lives, and every hot meal restores faith in humanity.” — Oleksandr Pasykov, Founder & CEO of appflame.

Our initiatives

  • The project "Captains" training for the Territorial Defense Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (completed)
    The Ukrainian Armed Forces Territorial Defense Command, jointly with the Come Back Alive Foundation and with the support of IT companies Genesis, SKELAR, Headway, appflame, AMO, Universe, and Quarks.tech have developed the eight-week training for Ukrainian officers for learning military decision-making procedures, studying battle planning procedures and building leadership skills.

    This course was based on the standards of NATO armies and the experience of the russian-Ukrainian war. More than 500 officers completed the training course in 2023.

    In 2024, for implementing this project, we received an award from the DOU Prize in the category of "The most powerful initiative from an IT company that brings victory closer" with other IT companies that participated in the training creation.
  • Voluntary Service at appflame
    Since the beginning of the war, we've created the appflame Volunteer Service and provided our team members and their families with everything they need, helped to fulfill military requests that come directly to our company, and supported employee volunteer initiatives for fundraising.

    We've already transferred millions of hryvnias for the needs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in cash, not counting other types of assistance, and plan to continue our support.
    Additionally, appflame provides financial support to all mobilized employees from the first day they decide to serve in the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

    Within the Volunteer Service, we organize events where the team creates power banks, assembles FPV drones, makes trench candles for the military, and conducts tactical medicine training for employees and their families.
  • The project "Zdiymemo rokit"
    appflame also has supported the initiative “Zdiymemo rokit” jointly with the Come Back Alive Foundation and the Genesis IT company, and provided the 112th separate battalion of the 112th separate battalion of the Territorial Defense Forces with equipment for aerial reconnaissance fully at our own expense.

    Now, this equipment is saving the lives of our defenders and helping to destroy the aggressor.
  • The project "Pride is not available in your region"
    During the full-scale war, the team of one of our products, the largest inclusive LGBTQIA+ dating app Taimi, allied with UKRAINEPRIDE NGO, a pro-patriotic queer movement aimed at the protection and education of Ukrainian cultural self-identification.

    Within the Blackrock initiative "LGBTQ+ Identities in the Face of War" we created the campaign "Pride is not available in your region" to raise funds to support the Ukrainian LGBTQ+ community, who joined the units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, human rights volunteer groups, and all those who courageously overcame the devastating consequences of the russian invasion of Ukraine.

    Together with UKRAINEPRIDE NGO, Taimi has also created a social video project for International Pride Month – "PRIDE IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR REGION."
