One year ago today, a team of twelve volunteers from Rendall & Rittner completed convoy 45 with Ukrainian Action.  Our volunteers drove six pick-up trucks, that the company sponsored, 1,000 miles from London over three days, transporting essential aid for Ukraine. Here, the vehicles and supplies donated were handed over to volunteers from Ukrainian Action to be transported to locations where they were most needed, principally for medical evacuations. In addition we had tremendous engagement and goodwill from our clients, employees and suppliers to our initiative with UA and £28,000 was donated via Just Giving. Thank you again to everyone who supported it!  Following our convoy, we received some fantastic feedback from Jeff Hartman, the founder of Ukrainian Action: "We are very appreciative of the vital support of Rendall & Rittner. Together, we are protecting lives and making a difference to numerous Ukrainians who are affected by the continuing humanitarian crisis. Your generous involvement and support enables us to continue providing essential provisions to those who are most vulnerable, and the vehicles are being used to deliver supplies and to help the wounded which will increase the likelihood of their survival. Thank you to everyone at your company!" Watch the video below to hear from Jeff.  We are delighted to keep supporting their vital work in 2024! #SupportUkraine #UkrainianAction #Charity #Volunteering #RendallandRittner

Attention film lovers: "Taras” the film co-produced by Ukrainian Action and Matchstick Productions will be premiering at the Santa Fe, and Banff international film festivals later this month. The film tells the story of Taras, a professional Ukrainian snowboarder who went to war, experienced traumas, and returned to the Carpathian Mountains to heal and find solace. His story inspired the Ukrainian Action Heroes rehabilitation program, teaching war veterans to ski & snowboard which has welcomed 33 veterans in 2024. Please reach out if you would like more information, or are in North America/Canada and would like to meet this month and discuss taking action to support Ukraine.
