Blago and 'Khartyia' Join Forces: Fundraising for Vampire Drones and a Push for Cultural Support.
Blago and the National Guard's 'Khartyia' Brigade Forge a Partnership
According to Espreso.tv: Since March 2026, the company Blago has been collaborating with the 13th Operational Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine, known as 'Khartyia'. This partnership goes beyond charity and cultural projects—it also includes fundraising initiatives aimed at supplying military units with Vampire attack drones. A signed memorandum of cooperation underscores the serious commitment both parties have made to supporting Ukrainian culture and the country's armed forces.
Blago has become a key supporter of the 13th Operational Brigade, integrating this effort into its broader social responsibility strategy. As part of this alliance, Blago has received recognition for its contributions to Ukrainian cultural development, highlighting the importance of backing cultural initiatives, especially during wartime.
Supporting culture during war is an investment in preserving our identity and values.

Blago's main social initiatives in 2026 involve not only financial assistance for troops but also active engagement in cultural programs. Serhiy Zhadan, reflecting on the significance of this partnership, stated:
It is essential for us to build a circle of reliable partners among responsible businesses.

In this way, the collaboration between Blago and the 13th Brigade of the National Guard 'Khartyia' serves as a powerful example of how the private sector can support both culture and the military in Ukraine.
Bridging Business and the Military
The growing cooperation between businesses and military institutions in Ukraine highlights the private sector's increasing role in supporting state structures during a challenging period. Such interactions not only provide financial backing for the army but also strengthen cultural identity—a vital component of national unity. Amid an ongoing war, initiatives like the one led by Blago play a critical role in maintaining social stability and public morale.
