KPG Funds has pledged to donate supplies and money to help the children of Ukraine

New York, NY KPG Funds has pledged to donate supplies and money to help the children of Ukraine and calls on other real estate and financial firms to do the same.

“Looking at my birthplace, Kyiv, being bombed and turned to rubble we want to help," said Rod Kritsberg, CIO KPG Funds, who immigrated to the United States from Ukraine as a young boy.  "We stand with the people of Ukraine, to have sovereignty, to have peace and to move forward with a democratic future and not get pulled backward to an autocratic past. Ukrainians want to survive. They want to be free. We stand by them; we stand with them, and we hope for an immediate peace.” 

KPG Funds is working with several organizations to provide direct support from medical supplies to early childhood development kits to direct monetary contributions.

"It is imperative that education continues, and they immediately need money and supplies. We implore all those that have the means to donate, to please donate.” Greg Kraut CEO, KPG Funds. “Words are easy to say and actions difficult, but we call on everybody to do what they can to support Ukraine”
