SINGAPORE, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Vantage (https://www.vantagemarkets.com/), an international multi-asset broker,

is pleased to announce that it is launching a month-long donation drive in

support of UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, to help refugees and internally

displaced persons worldwide.

Vantage will be matching all donations from both new and existing clients,

dollar for dollar, to support humanitarian efforts undertaken by UNHCR

(https://www.unhcr.org/). The donation drive will run for one month until 30

August and may be extended based on client feedback.

UNHCR is a global organisation that has spent the last 70 years dedicated to

saving lives, protecting rights and building a better future for refugees.

Vantage and UNHCR jointly believe that everyone has the right to seek asylum

and find safe refuge.

According to UNHCR, the number of people forced to flee conflict, violence,

human rights violations, and persecution has now crossed the staggering

milestone of 100 million for the first time on record, highlighting worldwide

food insecurity, the climate crisis and other emergencies from Africa to

Afghanistan as leading causes.

Ann Moey, Partnerships Manager at UNHCR says, "International solidarity is

needed now more than ever, and all sectors of society can do their bit to help.

Support from private sector partners like Vantage helps us inject vital energy

into our humanitarian efforts, and allows us to deliver more assistance to

vulnerable, displaced communities worldwide."

The fundraising initiative is another step forward in Vantage's corporate ESG

journey (https://www.vantagemarkets.com/esg/), which was driven by the

collective desire among its staff to make the world a better place. This

donation drive follows closely after Vantage's partnership with Supercar

Blondie (https://www.vantagemarkets.com/supercarblondie/) in participating in

the Blue Carbon ESG initiative in Sardinia, Italy, as well as its multi-year

sponsorship of the McLaren MX Extreme E team

(https://www.vantagemarkets.com/sponsorship/mclaren/).

Sofiia Starchevska, ESG Ambassador at Vantage, said, "It's infinitely more

empowering and motivating knowing that your actions are one of many. It's

easier to see the power of collective, as opposed to individual, action, and

this is what we want to achieve with this fundraising activity."

"At Vantage, we know that the mental, emotional, and physical trauma of being

displaced and having to rebuild in a strange land is a massive challenge, and

we hope our initiative will double our support for refugees to seek protection

and enable them to rebuild their lives. Together with UNHCR, we hope to make

care our shared currency."
