Supporting the people of Ukraine

Colleagues right across Polygon have expressed their empathy and deep concern regarding the unprecedented humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. To date, over 4 million people have been forced to flee the country, and a further 13 million are stranded inside Ukraine with no exit route to a safe place.

Earlier this spring Polygon Germany provided support by coordinating the delivery of medicine and other necessities to the Ukrainian border. The effort was supported by other companies, who donated a variety of medical equipment.

Additionally, Polygon USA has pledged to match any charitable donations made by employees to the following charity organisations:

• UNICEF’s focus is on meeting the most critical and urgent needs for protection, clean water and nutrition, safety, and healthcare as well as safeguarding Ukrainian children’s rights and long-term well-being: https://www.unicefusa.org/war-ukraine
• Global Empowerment Mission is helping refugees from Ukraine with stable necessities and housing: https://www.globalempowermentmission.org/mission/ukraine-crisis/
• Center for Disaster Philanthropy is concentrating on mid- and long-term recovery, ensuring access to basic services, and strengthening the protection of those affected by the humanitarian crisis and COVID-19: https://disasterphilanthropy.org/disasters/ukraine-humanitarian-crisis/

In the face of such a tragic situation, it is important to remember that no-one can do everything, but everyone can do something. Our thanks go to all our colleagues who have given their support – we are proud of the empathy and commitment you have shown.

Polygon – Always by Your Side.
