ABOUT
Trident Aid is a Colorado based 501c3 Non-Profit Charity dedicated to providing humanitarian aid to the people of Ukraine.
On Thursday, February 24, 2022, Russia invaded the nation of Ukraine. By May of 2022, 8 million Ukrainian Citizens had been displaced and thousands had been killed.
On March 9, 2022 the Russian Air Force targeted and bombed Maternity Hospital #3 in the City of Mariupol. This atrocity inspired founders Aiden Sinclair and Rebecca Knight to act to support those in need in Ukraine.
Our first mission was self funded using credit cards to purchase emergency medical supplies for first responders serving on the front lines of the conflict. Aiden and Rebecca along with financial support from Paul Noffsinger of Greeley Colorado purchased $25,000.00 worth of critical trauma dressings, tourniquets, and blood coagulant and on March 10, 2022 Aiden traveled personally to Kyiv to deliver those supplies.
Seeing the suffering of those in need first hand, Aiden returned from that trip and began doing whatever he could to raise both awareness and funds to continue to bring aid to the front lines.
Through generous donations from patrons at his Underground Theater at The Historic Stanley Hotel, Aiden was able to raise an additional $35,000.00 to purchase more medical supplies as well as body armor and protective equipment for first responders serving on the eastern front.
With the support and financial assistance Matt and Shelley Busch, of Loveland, Colorado, Aiden returned to Ukraine in April of 2022 with this second mission of supplies and delivered them personally.
As the conflict escalated and continued over the summer, Aiden dedicated all of the profits of his theater to the continued support and supply of those in need in Ukraine.
In November of 2022, he returned to Ukraine with $175,000.00 worth of critical supplies and delivered them personally to units serving on the front lines in to cities of Kherson, Mykolaiv, Odessa and Bakhmut. In addition to theses supplies, the generous donations of Mr. Bob Rhue that were received while Aiden was in Ukraine, allowed us to procure and supply generators and additional medical and operational supplies to front line units serving in the south of the country.
Upon his return from this third trip, Aiden along with Rebecca Knight founded Trident Aid in order to continue to provided humanitarian aid and support to the people of Ukraine.
As of March of 2026, Trident Aid has delivered over $1 million U.S. Dollars in supplies directly to the front lines of Ukraine.
Trident Aid Inc. is a Colorado based 501c3 Not for Profit Corporation.
