Tesla is currently one of the tech manufacturers that are making huge efforts to help those in need in Ukraine.
Recently, the EV maker announced that it will allow consumers located in the areas around Ukraine to charge their cars using Supercharger stations for free.
Free Tesla Supercharger Expands to Slovakia, Poland
According to Inside EVs' latest report, Tesla sent an email message to EV consumers in Poland and Slovakia, saying that all the Tesla Supercharger stations are available for free.

Tesla Motors opened a new Supercharger station with four stalls for public use at their factory in Fremont, California. The Superchargers allow owners of the Tesla Model S to charge their vehicles in 20 to 30 minutes for free.

"You can access free Supercharging at all Superchargers across Poland and Slovakia. We hope that this helps give you the peace of mind to get to a safe location," said the automaker via its email message.
On the other hand, Tesla's charity is also encouraging groups of EV owners to provide transportation, as well as other forms of help to affected Ukrainians.
The latest free Tesla Supercharger access expansion is a big deal since the effort only covers selected areas in Hungary, Slovakia, and Poland when it was first announced.
Other Efforts Made by Tesla
Electrek reported that Tesla is making other efforts aside from offering Supercharger service for free.
The giant automaker also sent some Powerwall battery units to Ukraine. On the other hand, the American EV maker also announced that Ukrainian employees who will be required to defend their country will have three months off their salaries.
Aside from this, Tesla also said that they will be able to retain their position, allowing them to have their jobs while helping their beloved country.
