STAND WITH UKRAINE

We are a Ukrainian company. KindGeek was founded in Ukraine; our co-founders are from Ukraine, and all of our team members call Ukraine home.

KindGeek was launched during the Revolution of Dignity and the beginning of the russian aggression against Ukraine. We knew it would be a long road, but our values were clear early on: at KindGeek, we do not do business with russians and wholeheartedly work for Ukraine’s future.

During the full-scale russian invasion, we continue developing high-quality innovative technological products while volunteering and donating funds. We work for Ukraine’s economy as our army resists the unprovoked Russian war against Ukraine.

What you can do

We ask for any help you can offer, whether that is by peacefully protesting, speaking to your representatives, or donating funds. Here are links to trustworthy organizations in need of donations.
