Two proud Faroe Islanders, Bjarti and Heini, unite to launch the first Faroe Islands Battalion campaign to provide essential vehicles for Ukraine’s frontline.
This campaign was initiated by two native Faroe Islanders: Bjarti Grunnveit Olsen and Heini Zachariassen, both deeply committed to supporting Ukraine in its fight for freedom.
Bjarti, a former Royal Danish Guard soldier, volunteered in Ukraine in 2022, fighting on the frontlines. His recently published book, Soldat – Dansk soldat i krig i Ukraine, tells the story of his experiences in the war.
Heini, the founder of Vivino, has worked with Ukrainian teams for over 15 years. A strong supporter of Ukraine, he has visited the country multiple times since the start of the full-scale invasion.
After a conversation in January, Bjarti and Heini decided to take action, knowing that Ukraine's defenders never have enough equipment to sustain their fight. Inspired by past NAFO campaigns, they joined forces to launch the Faroe Islands Battalion and rally support from their homeland to supply vehicles to Ukraine’s frontline unit.
Their goal is clear: to provide critical transport for Ukrainian defenders while ensuring the Faroese flag, Merkið, flies in Ukraine as a powerful symbol of solidarity from the Faroe Islands.
Ukrainian soldiers know the immense value of our NAFO trucks and buses. These vehicles are carefully selected, produced between 2010 and 2017, ensuring reliability for harsh frontline terrain. Each truck is capable of driving at least 20,000 km (12,500 miles) without major technical issues, making them a lifeline for soldiers in combat zones.
NAFO Truck 2.0 includes:
This innovation not only ensures the safety of the truck but also provides critical support for soldiers on the frontlines, boosting their effectiveness and saving lives.

We are a charity fund from Estonia that has been working since the beginning of the war in Ukraine. To date, we have helped deliver over €7 million in aid. By communicating directly with the units, we know exactly what types of vehicles they need. We rebuild these vehicles to ensure they are equipped with jammers, night vision cameras, new mud tires, and other necessary upgrades to withstand the frontline conditions.
