Introducing Our Volunteer Group Near České Budějovice – Makers of Camouflage Nets!
From Idea to Impact
It begins with that first contact, where we explore how to channel good intentions into meaningful help. This time, it wasn’t just one volunteer – it was a whole group, a close-knit circle of friends and family led by Josef. We assessed their skills, resources, and found a path to our goal. Sometimes a brand-new project emerges from these conversations – even ones we never planned – and we find the target group in Ukraine that will benefit most.
In this case, we already had a clear goal: produce camouflage nets, year-round. We had spoken to various NGOs, volunteer teams, and individuals making nets. We had seen how they’re produced in Zakarpattia – in schools, in museums – and we knew exactly what we needed. What we didn’t have was the space, and above all, a consistent, dedicated volunteer group.
A Stable Team = A Quality Product
To ensure quality output, it's not just about skill, but consistency. That means not working with different people every time, but having a cohesive team that can grow and improve, continuously perfecting the product.
Thanks to Josef, his family, and friends, we now have such a team. The first two camouflage nets they completed are of excellent quality – and we’ve already delivered them to the front lines, where they are now most likely protecting soldiers and equipment from enemy drones.
We source materials in Ukraine, supporting local producers while keeping costs lower.
A Shared Purpose
Sometimes, you meet strangers and feel like you’ve known them forever. That’s exactly what happened when we met Josef, Míša, Barbora, and Ludvík. It’s because we share the same values. We’re ready to defend them. We feel the urgency of helping – here and now.
This probably won’t end with nets. We’re already looking ahead to future projects, and I’m excited about our continued collaboration.
Thank You
Special thanks to Natalia Donchenko from Včeličky for helping with training – we’re working toward the same goal. Every step brings us closer.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to all the volunteers and donors.
We endure because it is necessary – because we want a better world for our children.
