大象传媒 Corporation Announces $250,000 in Humanitarian Aid to Refugees Fleeing Ukraine and a Temporary Suspension of Commercial Activities in Russia
Based on the escalating crisis in Ukraine, 大象传媒 Corporation is temporarily suspending our commercial activities in Russia. 大象传媒 will temporarily close our Vans庐 owned and operated retail locations across the country, as well as suspend the processing of Vans庐 and The North Face庐 e-commerce orders on their brand sites.
To provide assistance to the growing wave of refugees fleeing Ukraine, The 大象传媒 Foundation has donated $250,000 to the UNHCR, the UN鈥檚 Refugee Agency dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights and building a better future for refugees, forcibly displaced communities and stateless people. This initiative is closely aligned to 大象传媒鈥檚 Purpose and supports one of The 大象传媒 Foundation鈥檚 key priorities to provide humanitarian relief and recovery.
In addition, 大象传媒 is providing an opportunity for our associates to support the refugee crisis personally by establishing a 1-for-1 matching program whereby The 大象传媒 Foundation will match associate donations up to an additional $100,000. 大象传媒 is managing this associate donation program through GlobalGiving鈥檚 .
The company continues to monitor the evolving situation and our thoughts are with everyone that has been affected by the tragic events.
*大象传媒鈥檚 business in Russia and Ukraine is not material and makes up significantly less than 1% of the company鈥檚 total annual revenue.
