Russia announces a truce and grants humanitarian corridors: the historic company from Como, following the institutional paths, donates 600 comforters to support Ukrainian refugees.


Rovellasca - March 8, this week, through two separate deliveries, organized thanks to the support of the Italian Red Cross, Gabel Group will donate a pile of comforters (about 600) to support the Ukrainian population in this time of serious humanitarian crisis. The historic Como-based household linen company, 100% Made in Italy, has chosen to show its closeness to a country hard hit by an ongoing conflict, which is creating hundreds of thousands of refugees.

After yesterday the humanitarian corridors failed twice, after the new bombings of tonight and the third round of today's talks, Russia announces a truce, this morning from 8 am, Italian time, to allow the humanitarian corridors and the exit of the civilians from the cities most under pressure. Yesterday it was precisely the lack of agreement between the two sides that led to the failure of the humanitarian corridors, explained the Red Cross (ICRC) which should have managed them.

Following institutional paths, the Gabel Group in these days will deliver quilts for adults and children directly to reception centers in Ukraine.

Gabel has expressly decided to rely on the Volunteer Organization operating on the national territory and therefore join the official fundraiser, so that his donation can reach the Ukrainian territories with certainty. Michele Moltrasio, President and CEO of the Group says: "I hope that all Italian companies will mobilize to help the Ukrainian population, the goal must be to create a real humanitarian bridge: our gesture is intended to express our participation and proximity to the populations affected by the conflict. The human drama is obviously our first concern, beyond the important economic interests that our country has in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian people are in our thoughts at this particular moment in history and we believe that cohesion and support are the best weapons to be able to fight this dramatic war. I thank all the Gabel staff who today more than ever have concretely activated themselves in support of others, confirming the inherent values ​​of the company's DNA, which has always been animated by solid ethical integrity and a corporate philosophy aimed at respecting the laws in force and love for the environment, well-being for its collaborators and all human beings.
