Nastsassia Nasko says she came up with the idea by accident.
A few days after Russia invaded Ukraine in late February, she had posted on Twitter asking if someone with a car could help evacuate an acquaintance out of the Kharkiv, one of the first Ukrainian cities to be besieged by Russian troops.
When nobody responded to her, the 23-year-old tweeted, half-jokingly, that she would send a nude picture of herself to whoever was able to help.
The experience sparked an idea and several days later — on International Women's Day — Nasko and her friend, Anastasiya Kuchmenko, launched "TerOnlyFans." ("Ter" is short for territorial defense.)
The project has a similar model to OnlyFans, the subscription-based social platform which has become a lucrative way for adult content creators to earn money. (It has no connection to OnlyFans, and the company did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.)
But on TerOnlyFans, the money goes straight to the Ukrainian army, rather than to the creators. Three months on, the group has raised more than $700,000, Nasko told Insider.
The majority of the donations go to Ukraine's Territorial Defense, although Nasko, said the project had also sent some money to refugee or animal-shelter organizations.

I applaud their attempt to help raise cash for their forces.....but does it not fly in the face of the message that Fremen tried to instill in the world? Is this not some form a sexploitation of Ukrainian women/men?
