History

Charity became a part of the Winner Group Ukraine`s DNA from the beginning of its creation in Ukraine. John Hynansky, CEO and owner of Winner Group Ukraine, has constantly initiated charitable support for children`s hospitals and boarding schools, providing priority needs: medical equipment, ambulances, furniture, computer classes, and educational programs. This is an example of how the corporate social responsibility of a business can go far beyond its boundaries.

Charity and helping those in need is not just one of the company`s areas of activity, which is being worked on because "it has to be." Corporate social responsibility for Winner is an element of the strategic vision of sustainable development of our business, a component of the company`s DNA. How God helps you earn, your responsibility is to give something back. Money is worthless. The friendship, health and helping others is priceless.
