The “Come Back Alive” Foundation and Ciklum are Raising 10 Million UAH for the National Team of Ukraine in the Invictus Games

The “Come Back Alive” Foundation for Competent Assistance to the Army and the IT company Ciklum have launched “Support Invictus 2.0” — a charitable initiative aimed at raising 10 million UAH to prepare the National Team of Ukraine for the Invictus Games 2025.

“The accumulated funds will be used to prepare for the competitions and support the national team — from training sessions in Ukraine to participation in the games themselves. Besides the sports component, a unique feature of the Invictus Games is that the participants’ families are invited to the competition. This provides emotional support and positively impacts the relatives of the veterans, contributing to their recovery not only physically but also emotionally. We also always send a team of professional coaches, psychologists, and rehabilitation specialists with the participants, as they understand the needs of veterans and enhance their recovery during the competitions. We are proud to be part of these processes and urge everyone to join in supporting us”, explains Oleg Karpenko, Deputy Director of “Come Back Alive”.

The Ciklum team has already contributed 5.5 million UAH to the project.

“Supporting veterans during their reintegration is extremely important for the future of Ukrainian society. The “Support Invictus 2.0″ project is an opportunity for us to contribute to the recovery of veterans through sports and their adaptation to civilian life”, says Andriy Oksenyuk, CFO at Ciklum.

The Invictus Games is an international sporting event featuring adaptive sports for veterans and active military personnel who have been wounded, injured, or have acquired illnesses due to combat operations. Ukraine has been participating in the competitions since 2017. The Invictus Games 2025 would be unique as they are to be the first hybrid games, also including winter sports.
