Latest on Blacks

Posted on February 1st, 2012 by Luisa
Share    

 As you may be aware from recent news in the press, Blacks have gone into administration and are being purchased by JD Sports who are already part of TheGivingMachine. Due to the forthcoming changes in ownership, Blacks are unable to confirm donation payments going forward and so regretfully, we have suspended their inclusion on TheGivingMachine. As soon as we have more details, we’ll let you know.

January donation payments over £16,000 !

Posted on January 27th, 2012 by Richard
Share    

I’m sorry this announcement is a bit late – the todo list has been quite long recently.  The total donation payments this month comes to £16,382.89. With 198 BACS totalling £5,809.33 and 259 cheques totalling £ 10,573.56.  We’re still in the process of moving charities and schools over to electronic BACS transfers which are easier for everyone.  Thanks especially to Michael & Grace who kindly did the envelope stuffing and stamping for all 259 cheques…

A special mention goes to the following charities and schools who each received over £100 this month : Cystic Fibrosis Trust, St Peter’s Primary School in market Bosworth , Suffolk Animal Rescue, Friends of Buxworth School, Farr Edge 2000, St. Lawrence Primary School Effingham, Overdale Infant and Junior Schools in Leicester, The Dassett Primary School, Orchard Nursery School in Tibberton, Merstone School, Classworks Theatre Cambridge and St Bernard’s Preparatory School.

The Greatest Gift from pupils at Ford End School

Posted on December 8th, 2011 by Richard
Share    

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to speak to pupils and parents of Ford End School near Great Dunmow thanks to an invitation from Clare, the chair of their PTA. It was the first time I had been invited to speak to primary pupils and so I sought the advice and thoughts of others in TheGivingMachine team. We asked the pupils to tell us about what they would consider the greatest gift would be, who they would give it to and why. Here’s some of the highlights which are just wonderful and reminds you how brilliant children are. Richard
