The first joint social project will be the arrangement of a gym in the Krasnolutsk school, located in the Gadyatsky district of the Poltava region. The school gym will receive all the necessary equipment, including balls, nets and other accessories for various sports.
It is also planned to equip three schools with the necessary furniture for comfortable work of teachers and pupils by the end of the year.
“Our company is a reliable partner of the regions in which we conduct our production activities. It is essential for us to support the communities in the territories of our presence. I am glad that other representatives of socially responsible business join us in our efforts. Although we have different areas of focus, we are ready to combine efforts to implement joint social projects at the local level. Today, we are starting our joint work with Kernel in the Poltava region,” said Viacheslav Chaus, Deputy General Director of JSC Ukrgasvydobuvannya for Land and Social Affairs.
“Kernel systematically supports the communities in the regions where the company operates. We help communities develop infrastructure, take care of children's comfort in schools and their leisure activities. I appreciate companies with the same socially responsible attitudes willing to make a difference. Our first joint project within the framework of the Memorandum was the next step of the business towards raising the living standards of Ukrainian communities. We hope it will contribute to improving the quality of physical education of children, as well as their motivation for extracurricular sports activities. This is the first, albeit small, but very important step in our interaction,” said Igor Pototskyi, Deputy Director of Kernel Agricultural Business for Land Bank Management.
