De Beers Group has been shocked by the violence in Ukraine and inspired by the bravery of its people.

We are donating US$1 million to aid organizations that are operating in the region and providing support to those impacted by the war.

The Anglo American Foundation will also match donations made by our employees, up to GBP1,000 per person per year, through its Employee Match Funding scheme which is open to all permanent employees across Anglo American.
