In addition, Relativians around the globe have been making generous financial donations to the “Help Ukraine” fund via our company’s philanthropic platform, Benevity, which have been matched by Relativity and its investors.
With over 250 Relativians on the ground in Poland, many assisting with refugees from Ukraine, Relativity has been supporting those employees via stipend, food and supplies.
Relativity has chosen Benevity as its platform to receive matching contributions.
Benevity is an online giving and volunteering portal used by over 750 organizations such as Relativity, Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Nike to help millions of individuals connect with the causes they care about most. Funds donated through Relativity’s Benevity Community Impact Portal are securely transferred to selected non-profits through Benevity’s regional foundations.
Donors will receive a donation acknowledgement or tax receipt (pending their location, the non-profit’s location, and the currency of the donation) immediately from a regional foundation (e.g., American Online Giving Foundation). The non-profit will receive one disbursement from all individuals and organizations donating to them across the Benevity platform. This single disbursement, especially during a time of crisis, allows the organization to focus on their mission versus the administrative requirements of processing donations.
Relativity has made available links to several vetted organizations for your contribution. Should you wish to donate directly and have your contribution matched (up to $1m), please send the receipt to socialimpact@relativity.com.
Relativity is partnering with Razom, Direct Relief, and Polish Humanitarian Action via CAF America to receive match donations. These organizations have special projects in place to support humanitarian relief efforts for impacted Ukrainian refugees, such as providing food, clothing, and medical supplies. Each organization has been thoroughly vetted to ensure donations are appropriately and efficiently distributed.
