Announcing the donation, the company said in a statement: “Brother is extremely saddened that so many innocent lives are being negatively impacted by the current situation in Eastern Europe and have decided to extend our support to those in need.
“We sincerely hope that everyone impacted finds safety and security, and our thoughts remain with all those affected in Ukraine and the wider area including our customers, employees and business partners.
