Our response on helping Refugees

In these hard times we are keeping all People who have found themselves to be affected by the recent conflict in Ukraine in our hearts and minds. As Gi Group, we stand for people – and we are fully committed to support anyone in need.

Gi Group is gathering donations through its local foundation in Poland, FUNDACJA GI GROUP, active since 2013 (see more information below). The fundraising is open to anyone willing to make a donation to directly support Refugee’s accomodations and basic needs. Gi Group has already made a donation of 50,000€ and the company will double match any incoming donation: for any 1€ donated, we will be adding 2€ to it.

Goal of the fundraiser:

  • Supporting Ukrainian Refugees during their new employment through Gi Group, with a 200€ bonus (converted into local currency) per person in addition to their first salary
  • Provide economic aid to Ukrainian refugees who receive accommodation from a Gi Group internal employee (200€ converted into local currency)
  • Supporting different Charities helping Ukrainian Refugees

Other activities Gi Group is promoting to help Refugees

 

We have created a Global Task Force to respond to the emergency as well as an ad hoc Emergency Team in Poland to coordinate our activities on the ground, with dedicated contacts for Refugees to reach out. We are physically present at the Polish, Slovakian, Hungarian and Romanian Borders – as well as having a dedicated aid garrison in Czech Republic. We are constantly in touch with the Polish National Commission for Human Rights to ensure we have and are able to share the latest, first-hand and trustworthy information about the situation in real time. Our Emergency Team are able to provide Refugee with basic support (including transportation, accommodation, food, clothes, blankets, medicines, toiletries, baby products) and to help each and everyone who is in need to find qualified employment in their new location outside of Ukraine. Furthermore, we have secured the following concrete initiatives to support Refugees:

  • Setting up a Polish and Ukrainian speaking contact centre reachable via mobile, SMS, Viber and Whatsapp, for any information regarding transportation, accommodation, legal and Visa matters, etc., together with physical support points at the border, both in Rzeszów and in Przemysl and in each of our Polish Offices
  • Creating an Open Jobs Website in Ukrainian to connect Refugees in urgent need of employment with Companies across Central, Eastern and Western Europe
