At Infineum, our commitment to sustainability extends beyond our operations to the heart of the communities we serve. Recently, we presented the annual charity fundraising results of Infineum UK at our head office in Milton Hill. In 2023, combined donations from Infineum and the dedicated fundraising efforts of our colleagues raised more than £85,000 for charities.
As part of this celebratory event, charities who had received support were invited to a special lunch on site. This provided a unique opportunity for these organizations to showcase the impactful work they do with the funds they received.
Our colleagues at Infineum played a pivotal role, contributing over £39,500 through various fundraising activities.
All the funds were distributed to deserving charities, each making a significant impact in their respective areas.
HEROS, a charity that retrains ex-racehorses to offer bespoke education programmes for children with special education needs or young people who struggle in mainstream schools, received £11,000. Monies were raised through a laptop sale, a charity Chinese New Year lunch, and an Easter raffle.
Wild Oxfordshire received £5,725, supporting their mission to catalyze nature recovery across the county. Infineum organized diverse fundraising activities, including a plant sale, a photography competition, and a bake-off.
The ME Association, focused on post-viral fatigue syndromes, received support through a charity football match, a tombola, and a furniture sale, raising vital funds for their advocacy and services. £5767 was donated.
The Newman Holiday Trust, which provides holidays for over 120 children with disabilities, saw an impressive total raised of £9,845 from events such as an auction, Christmas quiz, and Christmas lunch.
Other charities that received donations included Ghost Fishing, True Colours Theatre, Home Start, The Trussell Trust, SOFEA, The Didcot Powerhouse, Play2Give as well as many more. From contributing to cancer research, sponsoring dedicated trees, and supporting local hospitals, to aiding troubled youth through computer donations, Infineum continues to be a driving force for positive change.
Additionally, our commitment extends beyond financial contributions, as we actively engage in volunteering opportunities with the various charities we support. We are proud to play a role in supporting our communities and making a meaningful difference to the lives of those in need.
