A CRAFT ale subscription box is donating all profits this month to aid humanitarian efforts for people who have left Ukraine.
Jymi Plumer of Berkshire Beer Box will give all proceeds from the monthly selection box to the cause.
“I saw the scale of what is happening and thought that as I am in a position to be able to help, I should,” Mr Plumer explained.
“I know some Ukrainians who live and work in the UK too.
“I hope that what I am doing encourages others to donate.”
An optional £10 donation has also been added to the cost of this month’s box. Funds raised will be given towards the most appropriate cause at the end of March, due to the rapidly changing situation.
Mr Plumer said that money raised “will directly buy and send supplies, or into a charity fund.”
Boxes will also contain a candle in the colours of the Ukrainian flag, made by Lu Garcia of Reading-based Scatter and Bloom.
“We’d been thinking of working together for a while, but this seemed like the right time,” Ms Garcia said.
“I hope that everyone will light their candle and have a beer together somehow.”
There are limited number of March selection boxes remaining.
