We thank VBET Ukraine for deciding to share this great responsibility with us and becoming the first Ukrainian partner of the match,” says Yaroslava Hres, coordinator of the fundraising platform UNITED24.

We hope audiences around the world tune in and support this amazing game and every donation” Lester Holcombe – Executive Producer
