United 24 became the leader among charitable organizations in 2023. The fund managed to attract almost two-thirds of the total amount—12.07 billion hryvnias. The peak of donations occurred in December of last year—3.55 billion hryvnias, or 29%. This is a record amount for the month since the fund was established.
