Hilco Global (www.hilcoglobal.com) announced today that it will donate $100,000 through it’s Hilco Helps initiative to aid and support the people in Ukraine and its refugees that have fled to other countries.
Jeffrey B. Hecktman, CEO and Founder of Hilco Global said, “The attacks on the nation of Ukraine this past week have been tragic and unsettling. As a global company with offices across the world, we have watched in horror the unprovoked attacks by Russia on the peace-loving people of Ukraine and we condemn the killing of innocent civilians which has caused thousands to flee the country and leave their homes and lives behind.”
Hilco Global, through its Hilco Helps (www.hilcohelps.com) initiative, is donating the first $75,000 split equally between Sunflowers of Peace and United Help Ukraine, as they represent two organizations the company feels are having an immediate impact. On top of this contribution, Hilco Global is committing another $25,000 (for a total of $100,000) by matching $1 dollar for each like, repost and share on social media that highlights any of the philanthropic organizations listed below:
Gary Epstein, Executive Vice President – CMO at Hilco Global said, “To show solidarity and deliver assistance to the Ukrainian people, Hilco Global is calling upon our colleagues in the financial services industry, and our friends and family to join us in donating and sharing this message of support and solidarity on social media.”
Epstein added, “We believe that by sharing our collective voice for good, we demonstrate solidarity with the people of Ukraine and can deliver critically needed help to the victims impacted by this crisis. We urge everyone to consider sharing and donating to these and other impactful organizations.”
