HISTORY
President Zelensky set up the International Legion of the
Territorial Defense Forces of Ukraine three days after the invasion on 27th of February.
Unexpectedly Ukraine received tens of thousands applications to volunteer in a few days.
The initial procedure through Ukrainian embassies were not ready
for such large influx of applications.
That’s why different volunteer organizations were established to help both legionnaires
and the Ukrainian Military.
Ukrainian volunteer organization LEGION was established at the beginning of the war.
Since then we’re on a mission to help foreign Legionnaires fight for Ukraine, filling the gaps between Ukrainian Military and the warriors.
