Summer Sunshine Trucks 2026: Malcolm Nance

This is the shocking fifth summer of the war against russia! 

The Ukraine military is dependent on crowdfunding for frontline pickups.  These vehicles are used for logistics, military deliveries, soldier movement and rescue of injured soldiers. The vehicles keep the soldiers mobile and alive. 

In this campaign "Black Man Spy" is supporting for one truck, in a team campaign which will deliver approximately 10 trucks, bringing Summer Sunshine to the soldiers fighting in Ukraine.

Car for Ukraine is a grassroots local Ukrainian NGO based in Lviv. We buy vehicles in UK and drive them to Ukraine. In Lviv, they are mechanically upgraded, armoured and deployed to frontline units.

Car for Ukraine has delivered nearly 1000 cars for the soldiers since 2022.

General Goal of the Campaign:

Our wonderful partners, in the Summer Sunshine 2026 campaign, aim to raise 115,000 EUR to provide 10 pickup trucks for the Ukrainian army.

Goal of the Campaign for Black Man Spy:

• 1 armoured and battle ready pickup costing EUR11,500 

Who will receive the vehicle?

• 65th Mechanized Brigade fighting in Zaporizhzhia region

The average cost of an armored pickup we deploy to the frontline is €11,000. If you contribute with that amount all the custom branding options will be yours. Plus you'll receive a personalized reporting about the truck, where it ends up as well as some surprise gifts from us.

On top of that, you may personally deliver the truck UK ---> Ukraine, getting it to our workshop for further refitting and preparation for the frontline.

What Makes C4U Trucks a Perfect Balance?

Short answer: We spend money on what really matters and save on everything else to deliver more trucks every time.

• Frontline pickups: C4U has provided 900+ frontline pickup trucks since 2022, with funds raised EUR 8.1M (May 2026).
• C4U deploys mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, dated 2010-2017, with low mileage, fully serviced and upgraded to last 20-30,000 km without technical issues.
• These pickups are most favoured by Ukraine military due to being some the toughest and most reliable pickups for the frontline in Ukraine.
• Armour for life: C4U is one of a few groups that focus on making vehicles battle-ready, not just cars. One key element for every truck that has a risk of being hit: we armour them with 8mm steel plates around vital places of humans (neck, knees, head, body) as well as around the vehicles' vital places - such as engine parts, radiator, turbo, accumulator to keep the vehicle moving even after being shelled.
• Direct support to Ukraine: Spending your donor dollars inside Ukraine supports the survival of Ukraine as a nation and develops in-country skills and capabilities. Engineers doing mechanical work and armouring vehicles, visual designers, patch and pin makers, and other paid personnel are all in Ukraine.
• Value for donor money: The main personnel with C4U are all volunteers working pro-bono.  Our costs are kept to a minimum (no marketing, paid photographers, event planners). The currency value of UAH is 40x lower than EU compared to USD.
