=== Fundraising of the foundation ===

As a charitable foundation, Angels depends on donations from patrons and citizens. To raise funds, the foundation uses a variety of activities — from opening local collections for a specific need (for example, prosthetics for a particular soldier) to organising charity events.

The largest such event so far has been the Friends of Angels Evening, where business representatives, patrons, partners, military personnel and other guests had the opportunity to contribute to the foundation's activities through a charity auction. The event is planned to be held annually, with the first and so far only one taking place in May 2024. The fundraiser raised over UAH 20 million for three areas of the foundation's activities:

*The Warriors' Health Fund provides treatment, rehabilitation and prosthetics for wounded soldiers;

*Angels of Education is education of children of fallen and captured soldiers;

*Institutional support is support for the Angels office.

A total of 11 lots were presented, one of which - an embroidered shirt worn by Dzvenyslava Sira, Head of the Department for Work with Wounded — was sold for $75,000.
