AL-KO Vehicle Technology donates for Ukraine

Sterile bandages and other medical supplies are urgently needed in the ongoing conflict. AL-KO Vehicle Technology Group is donating larger quantities of the urgently needed material in an arrangement with the “Leipheim helps Ukraine” initiative. Harald Hiller, President & CEO of AL-KO Vehicle Technology, comments: “We are all deeply concerned about the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Ukraine. We want to use our resources and contacts to help mitigate the horrifying effects of the conflict a little.”

“Leipheim helps the Ukraine” takes care of the transport

AL-KO Vehicle Technology has the resources and contacts needed to organise the procurement and provision for “Leipheim helps the Ukraine”. The initiative is made up of private individuals. Medically trained members have drawn up a list of items needed to treat serious war injuries. The initiative can rely on a network of Polish and Ukrainian supporters for the transport to Ukraine and has already organised and transported several runs of donations in kind to Poland and Ukraine in recent weeks.

Under the motto #bettertogether, all employees of AL-KO Vehicle Technology in Germany were also able to make their contribution: with a voluntary salary donation, i.e. by waiving payment of parts of their remuneration or parts of an accumulated hourly quota on a working time account. These donations went to the International Red Cross.
