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.
