 Design/Method/Approach: the study was conducted using the following general and special methods: the method of analysis and synthesis in their systematic combination during the study of official documents of the national legal framework; statistical methods in the study of charitable indicators; abstract-logical method – for the formulation of theoretical generalizations and conclusions of the study. The work was done personally by the author.

Findings: the article investigates the organizational and legal aspects of accounting for charitable donations in the Armed Forces of Ukraine under martial law. It is defined that the aid is charitable in case of simultaneous observance of voluntariness, purposefulness and disinterestedness criteria. It is established that the charitable assistance, in order to provide financial needs of national defence of the state, is rendered at the expense of charitable donations of individuals and legal entities, can be carried out both individually and collectively by gratuitous transfer of funds and/or property in kind. The article emphasizes the risks of misuse of charitable donations in kind because of the contradictory norms of the current legislation.
