Music connects / Help for those affected by the war in Ukraine

The war in Ukraine and the suffering of the people there and those fleeing also concerns us at Woolwind. There are a number of reasons for this, some of which are directly related to Woolwind, others to us as the people behind Woolwind.

For one thing, our tailcoats are tailored by a company in western Ukraine that our manufacturer Greiff works with. We are in regular contact and very much hope that our current and future orders can continue to be processed there, because we know how important their work, the associated income and the appreciation of their skills are to the employees there. Although our warehouse and therefore our customers will have to wait a little longer for one or two items, we want to support the team in Ukraine through trusting cooperation.

Secondly, we have a very international customer base and, in discussions with musicians, we hear firsthand how much this conflict is affecting the orchestra scene. Benefit concerts, fundraising appeals, and countless stories about the fates of musicians' families bear witness to this.

Finally, we as the Woolwind team are also in contact with dedicated people and institutions who have been active in our region, and also directly in Ukraine, some for years.

We are convinced that help comes in many forms. We also try to help where we can and support, for example, Nehemia Team in Fürth.

Nehemia Team is a non-profit development organization from Fürth that was founded 35 years ago in Fürth (headquarters in Rudolf Breitscheid-Str.27, 90762 Fürth) and now carries out a wide variety of aid projects in 10 countries, primarily for disadvantaged children and young people.
