Apache is supporting Cash for Kids’ annual Winter Warmer Appeal for the fourth year in a row.
This significant donation has made a profound impact on the lives of more than 660 children in the region, providing warmth, comfort and joy this winter season.
The company have made a corporate donation of £25,000 to the appeal. The donation to the Winter Warmer Appeal has helped 662 children across the North-east of Scotland, whose families are facing financial constraints and are struggling to afford adequate winter clothing for their children.
Often torn between necessities like food and heating, it is challenging for these families to afford warm jackets and suitable footwear for their children during the coldest months of the year. The Winter Warmer Appeal aims to alleviate this struggle by providing £40 Primark vouchers, empowering children to select their winter attire and experience the delight of owning brand-new clothes. It also provides an educational opportunity, teaching children valuable lessons in budgeting and managing expenses.
Jamie Smith, charity manager, expressed profound gratitude towards Apache for their continued partnership. "Apache has been an amazing partner of Cash for Kids over the past few years and I am delighted they have pledged to continue to support the charity. This donation of £25,000 has helped over 600 children and young people this winter.
"To date, Apache North Sea Ltd has donated over £355,000 to Cash for Kids North-east Scotland, which has enabled us to support over 7,622 local children. We are very grateful to Apache for their generosity and ongoing support."
“Cash for Kids is an incredible charity that consistently supports struggling families in our community, said Jillian Owen, Apache’s U.K. Country Manager. “Many families are facing difficult financial choices, and the Winter Warmer Appeal helps to provide adequate clothing for children during some of the coldest months of the year in Scotland. Through Cash for Kids, we know that our support helps to make a difference to those in most need in our local community.”
