\"\"Along with the Danish Red Cross, IKEA has donated a total of 1.5M Euros<\/strong> to various accommodation centers across Ukraine that provide shelter for 30 000 internally displaced people (mainly women\/families with children, the elderly, and people with disabilities).<\/p>\n

\u201cAs reality is constantly shifting, there is a great demand for extreme agility; therefore, we decided to join efforts with partner institutions currently implementing immediate relief projects in Ukraine. As a result, 145,000 products were donated, along with additional monetary grants, <\/strong>with which we were able to furnish numerous accommodation centers, children’s play areas, and modular homes for Ukrainians seeking temporary housing”,<\/em> said Olga Ilchyshyna, IKEA Ukraine Deputy Market Manager<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Besides emergency relief, since the beginning of the war the safety and security of our co-workers was our top priority from day one. In addition to guaranteed job stability and salary payments for all nearly 400 co-workers, we implemented a communication system to provide them with the latest updates regarding their job security and overall safety. IKEA also established a Solidarity Fund to protect the standard of living and livelihood of various families within our company.<\/p>\n

On a global scale, various IKEA-related entities have donated together \u20ac30 million. You can read more by following the link<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
