Renesas Donates $1.08M Toward Humanitarian Aid for Ukraine

Renesas is donating a million euros ($1.08 million) to the U.N. refugee agency to support humanitarian aid for Ukraine, said the Japanese chipmaker Thursday. Renesas established a crisis response team at “an early stage” of the Russian invasion “and has been in close contact with its employees in Ukraine,” it said. Besides offering financial support to employees and their families still in Ukraine and those who left the country, Renesas built a shelter in the basement of its office in Lviv for those unable to leave, it said. The company didn't respond to our questions about the status of its business in Russia.
