State energy company provides humanitarian aid for refugees from Ukraine
Pomoc humanitarna PGNiG
Background information
Polish energy company PGNiG has provided aid for the reception points for Ukrainian refugees localised near the Polish – Ukrainian border. The initiative was funded in cooperation with the company’s foundation and was approved by state authorities, who in fact suggest that all state-owned companies should engage in providing as much humanitarian aid as possible.
Content of measure
PGNiG provided a reception point in Lublin with humanitarian aid. The transport of goods consisted of 20,000 bottles of water, packed lunches, sleeping bags and camp beds. Furthermore, the transports were arriving to other smaller cities along the border with Ukraine. PGNiG was reacting swiftly to the needs reported by reception points and provided any items necessary as soon as it was possible. The above-mentioned activities were supported by the company's employees who started their own fundraising in order to help funding of functioning reception points or providing humanitarian aid for the people that stayed in Ukraine and whose lives were in danger.
In 2022, the PGNiG Foundation donated over PLN 1 million (€233,644,9 as of 13 December 2024) to the Caritas Archdioceses of Krakow, Lublin and Przemyśl to provide humanitarian aid to Ukrainian citizens, including food, medicine and hygiene products, as well as accommodation for Ukrainian children and their families.
