Thousands of veterans and civilians who have lost limbs due to the war face daily challenges: learning to walk with prosthetics, managing pain, and adapting to life after amputation.
To support veterans with limb loss, Future for Ukraine is hosting its annualGo to the Future 2026 charity run for the third year in a row.
When: June 7, 2026, at 8:30 AM.
Where: VDNG (Exhibition Center), Urban Park location.
Registration is open on the website.
Acceptance of human diversity is a fundamental value of the society of the future. This is what Go to the Future is about: small actions by each of us can lead to meaningful change.
Launched in 2024, the run has grown into an annual event that brings together veterans, active-duty military personnel, professional athletes, amateur runners, public figures, and anyone willing to support those on the path of recovery after limb loss.
The event is not about competition or speed but unity.
At the same time, every participant can set a personal goal by choosing a comfortable distance.
Military personnel and veterans participated free of charge.

Social impact
For three years, Future for Ukraine has provided functional prosthetics and recovery for Ukrainians, while also running awareness campaigns that explain what it means to live with a prosthesis and the support people need after amputation.
Last year, the charity run brought together more than 1,500 participants.
