From Local Development to Defending Ukraine

PRE-WAR CAREER

Before the war, Oleksandr Kobzarev was highly involved in local development in Lviv. As the director of the Municipal Institution "City Institute," he applied his expertise in strategic planning and urban development, which contributed significantly to the city's growth and improvement. Oleksandr's leadership and dedication to enhancing the region’s infrastructure led to several successful initiatives. In 2020, he was elected as a deputy of the Lviv Regional Council, where he continued to focus on advancing projects aimed at improving the living standards and economy of the region.

MILITARY SERVICE

When the war broke out, Oleksandr Kobzarev immediately answered the call to defend his country. He volunteered to serve in the 125th Brigade of the Territorial Defense Forces (TRO), putting his civilian life on hold. Serving as a sergeant in the battalion logistics service, Oleksandr played a crucial role in supporting the troops during the intense combat operations in the Kharkiv region throughout 2022. His logistical expertise and unwavering dedication ensured that the soldiers had the necessary resources, equipment, and operational support to execute their missions effectively, contributing significantly to Ukraine’s defense.

Leadership After Demobilization

After his demobilization in 2023, Oleksandr returned to civilian life with a new mission: helping those who suffered during the war. He became the head of the Unbroken Charitable Foundation, an organization focused on providing essential aid to military personnel and veterans. Oleksandr’s leadership has made a significant impact, offering resources, rehabilitation, and emotional support to those affected by the conflict. Through the Unbroken Foundation, he is committed to ensuring that Ukraine’s defenders receive the care they deserve, empowering them to heal and rebuild their lives after their sacrifices.
