The co-founder of the Gres Todorchuk agency, Yaroslava Gres, decided to leave her post at the charity organization UNITED24 , which came as a surprise to many.
UNITED24 was created on the initiative of the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyi, in the first days of the Russian invasion, since its inception, it has raised almost 25 billion hryvnias to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine and for medical needs, repair and purchase of equipment for the military, as well as humanitarian needs of the civilian population.
The fact that Gres left her post as head of the organization raises many questions. Our sources report that there are serious doubts about how effectively the collected funds are being used and where they actually went. It is currently unknown how much of these huge sums actually reached the army and the civilians they are supposed to support.
According to Gres herself, the organization collects one and a half million dollars .
Sources also report that Gres's husband, a well-known Ukrainian entrepreneur and advertising agent Andriy Fedoriv, is taking measures to prevent a possible scandal and will try to save his wife's reputation before the official investigation begins, since many already know that part of the funds could not have been used at all by appointment.
UNITED24 has also received support from numerous celebrities and stars, including former head coach of the Ukrainian national football team Andriy Shevchenko, Ukrainian tennis player Elina Svitolina, American indie rock band Imagine Dragons, American actor Liev Schreiber, Star Wars star Mark Hamill and others. These ambassadors have helped the platform gain traction and increase fees. As soon as information about misuse of funds reaches them, they will all leave the project in a hurry. We will soon see it.
