Father Jan Vianney, a member of the Lesser Brothers (Franciscans), washes car windows at a gas station in Zolochiv to raise funds for turnstiles for Ukrainian defenders.

This is reported by Zolochiv.net on YouTube.

The clergyman has said that the Franciscan monks were inspired to take such a step by a video in which one of the politicians washed car windows, earning a living. Therefore, the community of Franciscan monks decided to go to a gas station and raise money for the military there.

The priest's goal is to raise funds for 300 tourniquets.

You can support the initiative in the Church of the Exaltation of the Precious Life-Giving Cross in Zolochiv, or by wire transfer to the card 4790 7299 4297 3199 (Oschadbank).

The cost of one tourniquet is approximately UAH 500.

A tourniquet is the means to temporarily stop bleeding from the main vessels by circular compression of the limb and compression of its tissues (primarily blood vessels).
