Secom® helps 500 refugees from Ukraine

Bucharest, 13th of April 2022 - Secom Healthcare Group, a well reputed organization on the Romanian dietary supplements market, continues to support families hard hit by the war in Ukraine and helps over 500 refugees: mothers, children, autistic children and elderly people.

After having donated over 5000 food supplements for physical and psycho-emotional support, through Zi de Bine Association, Secom® now joins the efforts of The Margareta of Romania Royal Foundation (Fundația Regală Margareta a României) and supports over 250 refugees from Bucharest between March and June 2022, providing them with accommodation, food, childcare, and social counseling.

The company also decided to stand by the mothers and children with autism spectrum disorders in Ukraine, who live in the Autism Voice House on a temporary basis. In the newly opened shelter, the 21 beneficiaries can enjoy not only safe housing and food, but also assessment, therapy in social groups and specialized psychological counseling.

Through the donation offered by Secom®, Autism Voice will also provide social assistance, logistical and legal support for declarations, medical documents, or consular links - physically or remotely, as appropriate - to another 200 families with autistic children in transit, as well as psychotherapy for another 100 parents or caregivers of Ukrainian children with autism.

"The situation of our neighbors in Ukraine, the daily news about the atrocities to which the brave Ukrainian people are being subjected deeply sadden us. But we focus on what we can do, so that we can offer a glimpse of good and hope to the families in distress who have arrived in Romania. Solidarity and humanity are the only ones that can help in such times." says Lucia Costea, co-founder & CEO of Secom.

Under the umbrella of Secom's philanthropy program Together in the Service of Good (Împreună în Slujba Binelui), the company has also launched an internal #SecomHelpsUkraine (#SecomAjutaUcraina) action through which team members can donate products needed by refugees - clothing, footwear, hygiene products etc - or make cash donations.
