Our First Response

With the beginning of full-scale invasion, our company transferred UAH 250,000 for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and, in coordination with the IT cluster, for the needs of our Lviv 80th Airmobile Brigade.

Additionally, we made our contribution of UAH 200,000 to pay for bulletproof vests, helmets, walkie-talkies, NB devices that were handed over to the Territorial Defense of Kyiv. We also took care of the Maternity Hospital №1 in Lviv. We tried to make the stay in the shelter as comfortable as possible for expectant mothers and little Ukrainians born at such a difficult time.

Also, we informed and asked many of our colleagues from Sweden and other countries to commit to helping and supporting our Army financially.

Employees safety and assistance

After the full-scale invasion, our company’s responsibility was to ensure the safety of our employees and our continuous operation. We have created beforehand an emergency plan to be prepared for this scenario.

Due to russia’s full-scale war in Ukraine, we were dedicated to providing our full assistance with the relocation of our employees, who were stuck in occupied territories or were close to the active war zone.

Cooperation with Come Back Alive Foundation and Donations

Since the beginning of this year, we have been cooperating directly with the Come Back Alive Foundation, one of the main organizations in Ukraine that serves the needs of the Ukrainian Army. We contributed to two projects: the Captains Course Training Program and “Long Hands for TDF”.

Within the framework of this collaboration, Forbytes has donated 500,000 UAH (250,000 UAH for each project).

Additionally, at the end of the year, the company usually allocates funds for Christmas events and gifts. This year, we decided to direct these funds to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine and volunteer organizations.
