MacPaw Foundation Saves Lives in Ukraine with a Rare WWDC19 Pin Auction

MacPaw Foundation Saves Lives in Ukraine with a Rare WWDC19 Pin Auction

All funds raised will go to MacPaw Foundation to acquire five special blood bank refrigerators

These refrigerators play a crucial role in preserving donated blood, ensuring its availability for wounded Ukrainian civilians and defenders who face daily challenges due to constant russian missile attacks.

The situation in Ukraine remains critical, with at least 2.9 million people residing in severely war-affected regions, enduring heavy shelling that causes injuries and fatalities on a daily basis.

In the midst of our raffle planning, russia’s attack on Kakhovka Hydro Power Plant in Ukraine on June 6 unleashed catastrophic floods, putting 80 settlements & Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant at risk. MacPaw will channel extra raffle funds to aid 16K affected Ukrainians.
