PwC in the Midlands has entered into the festive spirit, making
more than 100 charitable donations through the firm's annual
'Caring at Christmas' appeal.
The appeal, which encourages staff to give gifts to be donated
to local charities, has been running for more than six years and
continues to go from strength to strength.
This year 115 presents, ranging from toys and books to kitchen
utensils and toiletries, were collected by the appeal. The gifts
went to a number of charities in the region including The
Birmingham City Mission, Sure Start Edgbaston and The Bridge
Project, which runs a hostel for the homeless and is hoping to use
the items donated in a new hostel opening in the New Year.
David Gandee, community affairs champion at PwC in the Midlands,
said:
"Despite the many years that PwC has been taking part in the
'Caring at Christmas' appeal, we continue to be overwhelmed by the
generosity that has been shown. All of the charities received the
donations gratefully and we hope that the gifts help to spread some
festive cheer."
