The Ukranian born, San Francisco transplant is a former executive at Uber. Liscovich says, after attending a Ukraine rally outside San Francisco City Hall in early March, he was desperate to find a way to do more than send money.Within days Liscovich was reporting for duty with the Ukranian volunteer army.But Liscovich quickly realized that more manpower wasn’t what they needed most, it was his knowledge of tech and supply chain management.
"Most of the efforts in the west have been focused on providing humanitarian aid, and this is a noble undertaking," said Liscovich. "But the problem with the humanitarian aid, is that humanitarian aid doesn’t win wars."More than $200 thousand dollars has been donated to their group, The Ukranian Defense Fund, filling a void in the donation pipeline to volunteer soldiers.
