Relatives of inmates face challenges in delivering food, medicine, clothing, and everyday items to detention centers and prisons. To deliver necessary items to a loved one in a pre-trial detention center or prison, you need:

• To spend time on a trip to the store and back for purchasing goods
• Repackage the goods into transparent packaging, taking into account the current restrictions.
• To spend time and money on a trip to the place of incarceration and back.
• To stand in line for delivering items.
• To fill out a transfer receipt.

In a situation where the relatives of the inmate live in one region of Ukraine, and he is serving his sentence in another, such travels make it impossible to support the prisoner.
To address these issues, our online store for inmates has been created, which provides:

• Quick delivery of parcels to pre-trial detention centers and prisons.
• Proper packaging.
• Compliance of goods with legal requirements.

Today our online store serves all operational pre-trial detention centers and prisons in Ukraine (except those located in occupied territories or active combat zones). And in 2013, this project looked like this:
