Good night imperial pride – support combatant comrades who fight Russian occupation of Ukraine
What is Good night imperial pride?
GNIP is a solidarity campaign for antiauthoritarian comrades participating in the fight for liberation of Ukraine from the Russian imperial invasion and occupation.
What are the aims of the campaign?
We try to collect 16.000€. This money will enable us to buy 2 night-vision devices and 22 plate carriers for two troops in which our comrades are fighting. One of them you can follow here: t.me/theblackheadquarter.
Who conducts the campaign?
We are a group of antiauthoritarian leftists and anarchists in solidarity with our fighting comrades. On request from comrades in the troops we have already in the past bought and supplied material, including vests, helmets and other militarily necessary material.
How do we operate?
The responsible person from our volunteers receives requests directly from the troops. Then our group search the most highly prioritized materials first and coordinate the purchase with two troops. As soon as they have agreed what to buy, we buy. We receive orders and than make sure that it arrives in Kiev.
The campaign Good night imperial pride has already agreed with troops on required type of night-vision devices and the models and sizes of the plate carriers are already known to us. We simply have to buy them and then deliver them to Kiev.
How do we estimate the costs for the materials?
Prices for night-vision devices vary between 3500 and 4500€, the plate carrier cost 200-300€. Given the needs (22 vests and 2 night-vision devices) we have calculated the overall costs using the upper bound price estimates.

What will we do with any collected money exceeding the necessary costs?
Any money that may remain after the purchase of the initial top-priority materials will be used to supply the two platoons with further necessary items.
Additional donations would also enable us to pay the gas for the drivers which will bring the supplies to our comrades.
