In our company, collections of food and equipment are underway, aid in various forms is being donated both from KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and companies in the KGHM Group, and our employees are actively participating in actions aimed to strengthen dikes and carry out other activities in areas at risk and affected by flooding.
