URALCHEM Supporting Children

Assistance in the improvement and development of the social aspect is one of the main areas of the holding's charity activities. As part of the URALCHEM Supporting Children, the company's branches actively work with preschool and educational institutions, participate in organizing topical and entertaining city events, and provide support to municipal children's clubs and associations. Since 2010, the KCKK Branch has been carrying out major repairs of premises in kindergartens, equipping new facilities. In addition, under a cooperation agreement between URALCHEM, the administration of Kirovo-Chepetsk, and preschool institutions, the company creates corporate groups that, after four years, are handed over to the municipality for use. Voskresensk Mineral Fertilizers plant provided aid to the “Equal Opportunities” Center for Social Assistance to Children with Disabilities. Medical and rehabilitation equipment was purchased for the inmates of the institution. In addition, the chemical plant acted as a partner of the children's holiday on the eve of the World Cerebral Palsy Day, and the plant workers arranged a New Year's surprise for the special children. PMF Branch rendered sponsorship assistance to the sponsored school No. 132 in the repair of the chemistry classroom and paid for installation of street workout complexes in several Perm communities.

In 2020, in the situation of coronavirus restrictions, URALCHEM representatives congratulated the veterans in a safe manner and presented gifts.

URALCHEM Supporting Regions

URALCHEM Supporting Regions is another large-scale area of charity work. Thus, within the framework of this program, social partnership agreements are signed annually between URALCHEM and the municipalities of the Kirov region, whose interests are represented in the regional parliament by deputies that are employees of the company. URALCHEM regularly helps the districts of the region in the implementation of socially significant tasks and projects in various areas - education, culture, sports, and provides assistance to socially vulnerable people. The "Good Harvest" event is held every spring - the residents of these regions receive mineral fertilizers produced by the KCKK Branch for their gardens. In 2020, almost 40,000 women from the region took part in the event. As part of the signing of a trilateral social partnership agreement between URALCHEM, the Government of the Kirov region, and the Administration of the City of Kirovo-Chepetsk, 25 million rubles were allocated to the Kirovo-Chepetsk budget for the repair of roads, sidewalks, and educational institutions. The Berezniki Branch of the company traditionally supports the Azot Cultural and Sports Center (CSC) for the city residents. Every year, financial assistance is provided to the Perm regional youth movement League of Leaders for the implementation of socially beneficial initiatives: the organization of environmental campaigns, volunteer work with the elderly people and people with disabilities, other municipal and regional campaigns and events.

Significant funds were allocated to educational institutions in Voskresensk and the Horlovskaya Boarding School. In honor of the 80th anniversary of the vocational education system, another gift certificate was presented to the staff of the Voskresenskiy College, which has been a source of personnel for the plant since Soviet times. Within the framework of the program, in the regions of its presence, the company supports achievements in the field of chemistry studying and teaching. For example, in 2020, the PMF Branch awarded prizes to the eleventh grader, who won the regional stage of the All-Russian Olympiad for schoolchildren in chemistry, as well as the teacher, who trained him.

URALCHEM Supporting Cultural Traditions

Under the patronage of URALCHEM, numerous public projects are being implemented for the patriotic education of young people.

In Kirovo-Chepetsk, the KCKK Branch finances the work of children's hockey clubs, provides sponsorship in organizing and holding competitions in swimming, Greco-Roman wrestling, judo, football, and rhythmic gymnastics. The Azot Branch and PMF Branch provide financial and organizational support to the development of swimming in the Perm Territory.
