24.02 at 4:00 Russian Federation insidiously attacked Ukraine. This event changed everything for us as a company and Ukrainian citizens.
From the first days of the war, we decided not to stand aside and take responsibility to support our country on the path to victory. We have chosen a few directions where we can help.
How Sombra Organized Work Process
As a company, we are obliged to keep working, provide working places, generate revenue and pay taxes. The Ukrainian economy must stay afloat to continue the confrontation. We have switched our sales employees to volunteer work with the war effort while developers focus on shipping code for clients.
Volunteering & Donations
The company management decided to donate $120K for the needs of volunteers and the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Also, our employees donated part of their rewards to help the Armed Forces, a total of $35K.
Our people are of paramount value to Sombra. We do our best to help and support each of our workers. We have relocated our colleagues with relatives from the regions with active hostilities. Also, we’ve opened two centers for domestic migrants – in our office and the kindergarten, where people can stay and feel safe. Now 18 people live there.
We’ve created a volunteer center that supplies the army and territorial defense with transport, equipment, tactical wear, and armour.
Cybersecurity Efforts
Also, our engineers have joined the Cyber Troops to fight cyberattacks, spread information about the enemy troops’ movements and defend the information front.

2025 Update
As the war continues, Sombra can not stand aside. An we didn’t.
In 2022 we’ve founded a charity fund ‘Sombra for Ukraine’ which have already provided assistance to over 4,000 people. The foundation supports the immediate needs of affected communities and collaborates with paramedics to provide crucial first aid to the injured as well as aiding sappers in de-mining operations in the reclaimed territories. More of the foundation’s activities can be found in our latest CSR report.
