The rule book was well and truly torn up in 2020, so in keeping with that theme, InAutomotive decided to do their corporate Christmas gifts a little different this year.
Instead of thanking clients with their usual corporate gifts, they opted to use that money to provide much needed support in their local community.
The money was split between a food bank donation and presents to homeless teenagers, distributed through the Streetlife organisation in Blackpool.
Food banks up and down the country have seen an increase in demand since the pandemic told a serious hold back in March. With thousands losing their jobs, and many more furloughed, food banks are anticipating a busy winter period ahead.
InAutomotive Director, Dave Capper, said, “It’s been an extremely challenging year and we’re delighted to contribute towards these amazing charities.”
He continued, “We’re extremely grateful to our loyal customers and we hope they’re pleased to have had this donation made in their name.”
“We’re delighted to contribute towards these amazing charities.”
On top of an already generous donation made through InAutomotive, the InAutomotive team wanted to do their bit as well, collectively adding another stack of food and toiletries to the donation.
Capper added, “We have an extremely generous bunch here and they were all really keen to add to the collection. We’re very proud of what we have collectively raised.”
