Edit: The deadline for collections has been extended to midnight on Friday, March 25, 2022.

The calls to the First Weber Foundation came within days of the invasion of Ukraine: First Weber agents and staff wanted to know, “How can we help? Are we going to take up a collection to help the residents of Ukraine?” It is with a resounding YES that the First Weber Foundation plans to be part of the support sent for Ukrainian refugees, specifically the vulnerable children and families.
A statement on the UNICEF website reads: “As conflict in Ukraine escalates, UNICEF is scaling up its emergency response inside the country – while also racing to meet the urgent needs of vulnerable children and families on the move as they stream into Poland, Romania, Moldova and other neighboring countries.”
The First Weber Foundation will match up to $5,000 of donations made to the First Weber Foundation from First Weber agents and staff, as well as the public.
