Over the two years of the full-scale war, ICU has allocated about UAH 300 million to aid projects in Ukraine. In addition, ICU is one of the leading taxpayers in the financial market of Ukraine - during 2022-2023, the group paid more than UAH 330 million in taxes and fees to the state budget. This was reported by the company's press service, UNN reports.
One of the most active financial donors in the group is Avangard Bank, which has donated more than UAH 127 million in charitable aid to support Ukraine.
The ICU Group's funds were allocated to the United24 fundraising platform and the most reputable Ukrainian charitable foundations. This support helped to purchase medicines and medical equipment, machinery, evacuation vehicles, and supplies to deal with the aftermath of the Russian terrorist attack on the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station, as well as rebuild schools and shelters.
ICU is a regular partner of United24 and, in addition to funding the platform's projects, including the Game4Ukraine charity match, the Help the Rescuers collection, and many others, supports its operations.
At the beginning of the full-scale war, ICU was the first to launch the sale of military bonds, and since the start of the sale of military government bonds in Diia, every second bond there has been purchased through ICU. As of the end of 2023, the portfolio of ICU's clients in government bonds amounted to about UAH 16 billion. In total, in the two years since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the company has concluded transactions in government bonds worth about UAH 130 billion.
