Ukraine Crisis Appeal

Standing with Ukraine: Calling for tech industry support

Foundry (formerly IDG Communications) is calling on the technology industry across Asia Pacific to unite as one and support Ukraine with a collective charitable donation to help fund urgent humanitarian efforts. 

Funds raised will go towards providing medical supplies, emergency relief assistance including shelter, health, water, sanitation and providing basic aid items, as well as helping people restore contact with family members separated by the crisis.

This initiative and invite extends to individuals and businesses across the entire ecosystem – vendors, distributors, partners and end-users – and spans all markets from India to New Zealand, and every region in-between.

Through our Channel media brands at Foundry – ARN, Reseller News and Channel Asia – we aim to use our independence, reach and authority as a vehicle to mobilise the entire industry and concentrate collective efforts on providing financial support to help save lives in Ukraine.

Following consultation with the Ukrainian Council – and leading figures within the industry – the recommended course of action is for the technology industry to donate to Red Cross, a charitable organisation which still has full access to the people of Ukraine.

Please join our community efforts to help fund urgent humanitarian aid by donating today

Thank you to my Sponsors
