Find out how smart giving doubled The Mercantile Club's donation to The Prince's Trust in the Midlands
Because giraffe provides pro bono marketing and PR support to The Prince's Trust in the Midlands, we got to hear about how smart giving by The Mercantile Club has provided The Trust with £11,603 of funding to support young Midlanders.
The Mercantile Club worked with The Prince’s Trust to double the funds from the recent RAW (Raffle Auction Wine) event through an initiative called The Big Give.
The Big Give is an annual event where supporters have just hours to double their donation for their chosen charity.
Birmingham-based Ortus Group made a large donation at RAW by placing a winning bid for an original piece of artwork by Willard Wigan.
As managing director of Ortus, Colin White is also a founder member of the Mercantile Club, “It’s more important than ever that businesses commit to give back to society, be that national charities or local community groups. By supporting The Prince’s Trust in the Midlands, young people at a very local level benefit from the infrastructure that a national charity can offer.”
Well done all!
