In February, JSC OTP BANK transferred UAH 1 million to the account of Superhumans Center, a non-profit project that provides prosthetics, complex reconstructive surgery, rehabilitation and psychological support to Ukrainians who have been injured in the war.
The transfer was made under the charitable donation agreement for 2023-2024 concluded between the Bank and Superhumans Center, which provides for monthly support to the center. The funds are allocated to two crucial areas: support for the heroes, returning them to social life, and the creation of an educational center to scale up assistance and training for prosthetics specialists.
The total amount transferred by OTP Bank to the Superhumans Center is currently over UAH 28.8 million.
As a reminder, in 2023, OTP Bank held two charity auctions, during which it raised UAH 8.8 million. All funds were allocated to the prosthetics and rehabilitation center.
The total amount of funds transferred by OTP Bank to the Superhumans Center for Prosthetics and Rehabilitation amounted to almost UAH 27 million.
Recently, the Bank has completed a charity Christmas auction held in the OTP Bank UA app, which featured iconic lots from prominent personalities: Valeriy Zaluzhnyi, Kyrylo Budanov, First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska, billionaire philanthropist Howard Buffett, as well as famous athletes, actors, artists, etc. In total, there were 37 lots. The amount of money raised during the auction is UAH 5.8 million. Of this amount, UAH 2.9 million were direct donations from customers who made transfers in the app to help the Superhumans Center.
“This is the second major charity auction we have held to raise funds for prosthetics for Ukrainians. Our clients actively joined the initiative, and we are very grateful to them for that. We would also like to thank everyone who donated items for sale. Thanks to them and their willingness to support, Ukrainians who have been injured in the hostilities are receiving treatment and rehabilitation,” said Volodymyr Mudryi, CEO of OTP Bank.
“For the sake of help, we all united together: customers and employees of the bank, famous people and opinion leaders for a worthy cause. We are proud to be able to help Ukrainians, such as Vyacheslav, who worked as a freight forwarder before the full-scale war. Now Viacheslav is undergoing rehabilitation, getting used to using prosthetic legs and preparing for prosthetic arms,” emphasized Lesia Syrota, team leader of the OTP Bank Helps Ukraine charity project, Director of Retail Sales and Network Management Department of OTP Bank.
She said that the Bank had implemented a charity auction in the app for the first time, and the option of direct donations from customers was added for the first time. “In the future, we will offer no less interesting solutions to attract even more people to make contributions to support the Unconquered,” noted Ms. Syrota.
As a reminder, on the occasion of the Independence Day of Ukraine in 2023, OTP Bank also held a charity auction, during which it raised more than UAH 3 million. Another UAH 5 million was transferred by the Bank to create an educational center on the basis of the Superhumans Center to train prosthetists, who are sorely lacking in Ukraine.
In addition, OTP Bank transfers UAH 1 million or more to the Superhumans Center on a monthly basis. Thus, the total amount of assistance has already reached almost UAH 27 million.
In December, OTP Bank made a charitable contribution of UAH 11 million to the Superhumans Center. This amount includes UAH 10 million for the creation and provision of personalized wards for the Superhumans Center, as well as UAH 1 million for prosthetics for the center’s patients.
“In this powerful partnership with the Superhumans Center, we are inspired and motivated to seek and find new opportunities to support our heroes. As a result, the patients will receive the necessary rehabilitation, and the center will receive additional equipment,” said Volodymyr Mudryi, CEO of OTP Bank.
The total amount of OTP Bank’s assistance to the Superhumans Center has already amounted to UAH 21 million: in addition to the UAH 11 million just transferred, more than UAH 3 million was raised at a charity auction dedicated to the Independence Day of Ukraine, and OTP Bank added to these funds and transferred another UAH 5 million to the Superhumans Center to create an educational center on its basis. In addition, the bank transfers UAH 1 million to the Superhumans Center’s account on a monthly basis.
“As long as our heroes need support, we will not stop! We urge all our customers and partners to join the bank’s charitable initiatives,” said Lesia Syrota, OTP Bank Retail Sales Director and team leader of the OTP Bank Helps Ukraine project.
Thus, until December 25, OTP Bank is holding a charity Christmas auction, the proceeds from which will also be transferred to the Superhumans Center for prosthetics for defenders who lost their limbs in the war and need comprehensive treatment and rehabilitation. All customers of the bank can take part in the charity auction in the OTP Bank UA app. The full list of lots is available on the website.
We remind you that in September OTP Bank and Superhumans Center signed an agreement on charitable donation for 2023-2024.
