Fundraising to support the crisis in Ukraine
News Article | April 2022
TTC Group staff fundraise throughout April 2022 to help support those most affected by the war in Ukraine.
Through several fundraising activities and events, including dress down days, bingo and cake sales, TTC staff have managed to raise £280 to buy essentials to help refugees during the Ukraine crisis.
As part of TTC Group's Corporate Social Responsibility commitments, the funds raised by TTC staff were doubled by TTC's Board, helping to increase the impact of our charitable work.
Our employees are encouraged to nominate charities that represent their local communities, or support causes that are of personal interest.
This latest fundraiser forms part of a larger effort to help provide essential supplies to Ukraine's refugees, which is being coordinated by a local pub, The Plough in Wellington, Telford.
Philippa Davies, a Service Delivery Agent for TTC, along with a team of colleagues helped to organise the fundraiser events, purchasing selected supplies that are currently in short supply.
Philippa Davies commented:
"People have been forced to flee their homes without any personal belongings, with mothers of young children and pregnant women amongst the hardest affected by the war in Ukraine. We at TTC hope that we can reach those that most need our help in such an extensive humanitarian effort."
TTC staff have delivered the supplies to The Plough, where plans are in place to transport all donations into Europe, to neighbouring countries that are welcoming Ukrainian refugees.
