I’m Matthew Sampson

For almost 20 years, I have served my country in Iraq and Afghanistan as a United States Marine Corps Scout Sniper, a civilian contractor to the government, and an employee within the Department of Energy.

In 2022, I heard the call for help of the people of Ukraine, and standing by my own personal values, I made the choice to fight against the big bully, the terrorist regime of Russia, seeking to eradicate Ukrainian people, culture, and language. After 635 days in Ukraine, I’m now in America, ready to share my story and help others understand the value of supporting Ukraine’s quest for freedom and sovereignty.

I hate a bully

I am an American volunteer that was in Ukraine for 635 days, helping the Ukrainian people and fighting the Russian invaders. I love helping people, it's a passion of mine. I like to help people that aren't able to help themselves. I believe in an idea that children should not live in fear of being bombed, raped, and kidnapped for a war they did not ask for. I understand that there needs to be a huge influx of help from the democracies of the West, in order to provide the proper gear, training, and financial support. What many Americans may not understand is the sheer number of Americans that are serving as volunteers, and that through the help of NGO's and individual donors, we are having to outfit our own teams. What we need to serve the interests of the U.S. properly and protect the world we all grew up in, right now, is for more Americans to reach out to their elected officials and push for aid packages that will ensure teams like mine are outfitted properly enough to be efficient on the frontlines.

Support and Donations


I am here in the U.S. to share my experiences with lawmakers, thought leaders and the general public. I’ve had the good fortune of crossing paths with Americans from all across the U.S. who are helping me on my journey. The fact is, getting to your lawmakers office, or visiting businesses that can help me make a change requires some help from those who support my cause. I welcome anyone to visit my fundraising portal below, leave a little lunch or gas money for me, and leave a note on where we met and what impact I left on you. Also feel free to pass me information on people you think I should talk to, and hopefully a little donation to help me get there to help your interests.
