What We Do
We procure and deliver aid effectivly during conflict. Guided by a common purpose, we rely on individuals to create networks, build supply chains that reach conflict zones, and execute without delay. We provide three categories of support:
- Refugee Assistance: The conflict turned lives upside down, so we facilitate vital transportation, housing and medical services to the displaced.
- Humanitarian Aid: When a crisis strikes, we identify what's needed. We then work at the micro level, to source what's needed, when it's needed, and deliver it to those who need it now.
- Tactical PPE: We protect our friends' brothers, husbands and sons who defend Ukraine against Russian aggression.
Why support our work?
Because we get the job done.
During conflict, we effectively procure and deliver aid at the micro level because moving pallets and containers could take weeks or months. Instead, we start by saving one person. Then, their family or team. Their neighborhood or squad. Their village or platoon. Eventually, their entire town or battalion.
Together, we will protect and sustain those suffering through conflict to reunite families and rebuild communities when it ends.

How We Help
We succeed where large organizations fail because they take precious time to move supplies en masse while we move aid in smaller quantities to provide benefit to some immediately. We utilize funds and supplies on a rolling basis instead of waiting to act until we hit a funding or inventory goal.
Like the drop of water that creates a waterfall, our aid immediately begins to trickle into the hands of those who need it most. Over time, what we deliver will fill pallets and containers that help as many in need as possible.

Financial Accountability
During the first 10 days of operation - March 19th to March 29th - with the help of family and friends, under the team name Los Camioneros, we privately raised $7,787.14 on a different fundraising platform called Ko-Fi To increase our visibility, we chose to migrate fundraising efforts to SpotFund. We have retroactively transitioned all Ko-Fi updates into PDFs, available for your perusing here.
On 5/5/22, The Driven Ones Inc. became a registered Florida Not For Profit Corporation, and shall now apply for 501c3 exemption. Since we began, we stated our commitment to transparency which is why we publish our Financial workbook. It is always available and continuously updated on Google Drive. The workbook includes links to itemized receipts, invoices and statements; however, access to them may be restricted to donors only or some may be redacted to maintain OpSec. Please contact us if you would like us to grant you access to review them.
Your generous giving and continued support truly humble us.
