Help for Ukraine

March 2022

We continue to be outraged by Russia’s brutal, inhumane invasion of Ukraine, the blatant violation of international law and the massive oppression of the people and their freedom. There is unbearable suffering caused by this war of aggression by Russia upon the people of Ukraine, who now live in fear, cold and hunger, are on the run or are defending their country.

As a sign of our support, the firm is donating 100,000 euros today to two aid organizations that are providing on the ground assistance:

  • The Csilla von Boeselager Foundation has been active in Eastern Europe since the fall of the Berlin Wall. This organisation has been particularly active in Ukraine. It maintains several bases in Ukraine and especially provides support to the poorest and weakest members of the population. For those interested, here is the link to their website
  •  

  • The other half of our donation goes to Malteser International, which also maintains important projects in Ukraine and is now helping Ukrainian war refugees directly there, as well as in neighbouring countries. Here is the link to their Website
