Supporting the South Coast’s kids - Cash for Kids
20/12/2023
This Christmas, KES is supporting their local South Coast radio station, Wave 105, with their chosen charity, Cash for Kids.
Wave’s mission is Christmas for EVERY child.
Every year, thousands of children in the UK live in poverty. Many of these children will wake up on Christmas day without a present to open. This is where Cash for Kids steps in. They are a grant-giving charity that helps children who need it the most.
Every Christmas, Cash for Kids, through Wave 105 and other Planet Radio stations, asks the public and companies to donate to their Christmas campaign
KES has always been a community-focused company who have supported their employees and their families through thick and thin. Cash for Kids touched the hearts of KES with their dedication to helping local communities during the most desperate times.
Following last year's toy collection success, Brian Hamilton, the Chairman, expressed his appreciation for his team's outstanding generosity. Hamilton stated, “Mission Christmas is a wonderful cause. It’s heartbreaking to think that children live in poverty, let alone wake up without a present on Christmas Day. Anything that we can do to help change that is a positive step. As always, I’m grateful for our brilliant team and how generous they’ve been.”
This year, the KES team have again donated a literal car full of toy for this year's collection (Thank you team!). KES have gathered toys and gifts, from books and science kits to sports equipment and cuddly toys, not just from the KES team but from visitors and customers before taking them to Mission Christmas HQ.
The 2023 Christmas mission ends on Tuesday, the 19th of December. To find other drop-off centres or for more information about the amazing work Cash for Kids does, visit their website here.
