    Stronger Together for Ukraine<\/h1>\n

    Description placeholder<\/p>\n <\/article>\n <\/section>\n <\/m-hero>\n\n \n\n\n

    With the aim of raising funds to support the population affected by the war in Ukraine, we launched the campaign “Stronger Together for Ukraine”. Ferrovial will match the contributions received.<\/p>\n <\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    The war in Ukraine has caused more than 900,000 people to cross the border up to March 2nd, of which 450,000 have done so through Poland, and the UNHCR forecasts that the number of refugees will exceed 4 million people<\/strong>. In addition, there is a large number of internally displaced persons, and before the outbreak of this conflict there were already more than 850,000 people who had left their homes. Faced with this humanitarian crisis, the need for aid is multiplying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Ferrovial is launching the campaign “Stronger Together for Ukraine”<\/strong> to collect your donations that will be used to send humanitarian and health aid for the population displaced by the war<\/strong>, both those who remain in their country and those who have been forced to take refuge in neighboring countries such as Poland. The company will match the amount contributed by all of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We will support the initiatives already launched by our Budimex colleagues who are experiencing this tragedy on their borders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    NGOs such as the Red Cross, ACNUR and Caritas, <\/strong><\/strong>which have the logistical capabilities and extensive local presence, are joining the small local associations that are on the front line helping the elderly, women and children. Depending on the funds raised and the evolution of events and needs, new entities may be included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Accounts have been opened to receive donations in the United Kingdom, the United States, Poland and Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Our commitment<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Our commitment to responding to humanitarian crises dates back to the earthquake in Haiti in 2010. Unfortunately, our response and mobilization capacity has been put to the test in recent years with the social and health crisis generated by COVID-19 and the humanitarian emergency caused by the war in Ukraine. The drama that is affecting millions of Ukrainian families is especially close to Ferrovial’s heart, as our subsidiary Budimex is one of the main construction companies in Poland<\/strong>, a country that has received almost 3 million refugees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In keeping with our principles of action, we are involved in two areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
