Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd has been actively gathering chocolate egg donations to distribute among two local charities, Dynamic and Candlelighters. These organisations are recipients of the company’s ongoing support, through volunteering and fundraising efforts taking place throughout the year. The chocolate treats collected by Konica Minolta’s employee-run Social Impact Group will be shared with children and families benefitting from the services of both charities, in celebration of spring.
The Dynamic centre for children and young people with disabilities provides help and support to children and families with disabilities in and around Wrexham, whilst Candlelighters is a Yorkshire charity helping families dealing with children’s cancer. Marie Woodhead, Partner Marketing Manager at Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd, helped organise the collection and commented, “Being able to help these charities and the families who rely on them is such a rewarding experience. By working together as a team and with Konica Minolta’s resources, we can do so much more than we ever could individually.”
“From everyone at Candlelighters, we’d like to say a huge thank you to Konica Minolta, not just for their fundraising but for also donating the chocolate eggs. This lovely gesture will bring some joy to the children at Leeds Children’s Hospital, and to their families affected by childhood cancer this Easter.”
