Mercury pledges humanitarian support to Ukraine

Author: Cormac Byrne  /  15th Mar, 2022  /  News, Responsible Business

We are deeply shocked, saddened and concerned by the growing humanitarian and refugee crisis currently gripping Ukraine.

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the invasion of Ukraine. We stand in solidarity with all who are experiencing devastating loss, hardship, and pain during these devastating and worrying times.

We advocate for peace and an immediate end to needless human suffering. Ukrainian people are losing their homes and lives, families are being separated and essential infrastructure is being destroyed.

This week, Mercury has committed €100,000 to support the brave work of the Red Cross, who are currently on the ground in Ukraine and in surrounding countries.

With an exodus of refugees across Europe, we are committed to contributing to Red Cross operations in Ukraine and in neighboring nations such as Poland, Romania, Germany, Hungary, and Italy.

Mercury does not currently operate in either Ukraine or Russia but is providing support and appropriate resources to any of our people and supply-chain partners who are directly impacted by this war.

Our hearts are with the people of Ukraine, and everyone affected by this humanitarian emergency.
