At Operatix, we strive to support both our local and wider community however we can. With times being particularly tough over the last couple of years, our annual Christmas campaign focused on giving to families in need to ensure little ones didn’t have to go without.
Sadly, there were around 4.3 million children living in poverty in the UK alone between 2019 and 2020. According to the Child Action Poverty Group, 49% of children living in lone-parent families are in poverty.
With this in mind, Operatix donated £10 or $15 for every meeting sat during our month-long Christmas campaign. Both the UK and American teams worked incredibly hard to ensure as many children as possible received a Christmas present this year.
As a result, a total of £11,510 was raised by the dedicated UK team. This was donated to Cash for Kids Mission Christmas, a very worthy cause that gives Christmas presents to disadvantaged children across the UK.
The hardworking American office, on the other hand, raised an impressive $5,295. The team went out to purchase gifts for children, hand-delivering them to a local charity – see the photo above.
A big thank you goes to staff members in both locations for all of their hard work in 2021. While we know our teams work hard regardless of the time of year to give our clients the best service possible, seeing their efforts translated into gifts for children is sure to have put them in the holiday spirit during our Christmas campaign.
