WHITE PLAINS, NY – April 6, 2022 – ITT Inc. (NYSE: ITT) contributed $100,000 to the CARE Ukrainian Humanitarian Response Fund, which aims to provide life-saving assistance to four million people who have been impacted by the conflict. The situation in Ukraine is a humanitarian catastrophe. CARE provides emergency aid through local partner organizations like Polish Humanitarian Action and SERA, helping them provide emergency aid to Ukrainians escaping to Poland, Romania, and Moldova.
"The current events in Ukraine are a crime and a tragedy. We all are or will be touched directly or indirectly. We, at ITT, are grateful for the opportunity to work with CARE and provide much-needed assistance to Ukrainian citizens and others hurt during this crisis," said Luca Savi, Chief Executive Officer and President of ITT. "At ITT, we are a global company, against violence and believing that every culture should be treated with integrity and dignity. In difficult times like these, I appreciate the concern ITTers show to the people and communities around the globe."
In addition to its $100,000 company donation, ITT has launched a special 1:1 employee matching gift program where it will match the total contributions ITT employees make to CARE in 2022 up to $50,000.
A global nonprofit humanitarian organization with more than 75 years of experience responding to conflict, CARE is partnering with local organizations already on the ground in Eastern Europe. They are rapidly delivering emergency assistance and addressing the immediate needs of affected families through the distribution of critical food and water supplies, as well as hygiene kits, cash assistance, and psychosocial support. CARE also has partnered with People in Need, one of the largest NGOs in Eastern Europe, to provide emergency assistance to people displaced within Ukraine and unable or unwilling to leave.
