Support for the SOS Ukraine Collection

6.2.2026

Like many other companies in the Czech Republic, HESTEGO began employing Ukrainian workers around 2017. When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, it was completely natural for our company to try to help. We immediately provided accommodation for the wives and children of our employees and gradually took in more and more refugees under the roof of our dormitory. We arranged medical care for them, placed children in schools and kindergartens, and provided jobs for adults.

Currently, 19 Ukrainian citizens work for us in various positions. Each of them has someone close who had to remain in a country devastated by war. When information began appearing in the media about Ukrainian cities without electricity, hot water, and heating, it was clear to us that we had to help again. We contacted the organization People in Need and donated CZK 100,000 to the “SOS Ukraine” collection through them. We believe that our contribution will help provide basic living needs for someone’s loved ones. We are glad that we were able to take part in this collection.
