Ukraine – Parimatch Tech doubles financial assistance to Ukraine
By William - 16 March 2022
Parimatch Tech has doubled down on the amount of financial assistance the company is providing Ukraine to approximately €2.9m.
Spent on ammunition, medicines, clothing, foodstuffs and logistics, the fresh financial assistance will also be spent on humanitarian aid and the needs of the country’s defenders – namely binoculars, body armour, drones, helmets, military spec, thermal imagers, and night vision devices.
Parimatch Tech and Parimatch Ukraine employees are taking part in volunteer activities such as purchasing goods and medicine, cooking meals for territorial defence and refugees, delivering food and drugs to people in need, and evacuating residents from the hot spots. Some are defending Ukraine in the Armed Forces, territorial defence forces and cyber forces.
The company organised warehouses in Kyiv on the left and right Dnipro river banks that volunteers use to gather, coordinate and deliver humanitarian aid. Parimatch Tech transferred a significant part of the company’s office equipment to territorial defence forces: printers, laptops, monitors, network equipment, modems.
Volunteers use the branded Tesla cars of the employees to deliver medicines, food, ammunition and evacuate residents from the Kyiv region. Chief Talent Officer, Tatiana Davydova, said that despite the difficult times for the country and the business, Parimatch Tech did not withdraw any offers, and specialists who were terminating cooperation were offered to stay and receive a salary.
The company has paid in full all compensation to the teams and each employee can request emergency financial aid.
The territorial defence has also received Parimatch’s Tech branded products and onboarding kits: power banks, hoodies, socks, hats, thermoses, and food boxes.
