In our first year partnering with Calling London for their annual winter coat drive, over 10,000 winter coats were donated by friends, clients, staff, suppliers and business partners. A huge thank you to everyone who participated.
For the first time, we turned our London branches into donation points and worked with clients, local community groups, schools and businesses to raise as much awareness and collect as many coats as possible to keep vulnerable Londoners warm through winter, including the homeless, families facing financial difficulties and refugees.
Frances Manthos, Founder of Calling London, said: ''Thanks to the invaluable support of Chase Buchanan, I was ultimately able to help more people than ever before. The energy from the Chase Buchanan teams came in many forms: from managing the collection boxes in the branches, to reaching out to local communities, to collecting coats near their homes, and volunteering their time at the coat sorting.''
”Victoria Gorelik from Smart Works, added: ''The coats we received will be the perfect finishing touch to ensure our clients leave their appointments 100% prepared for their upcoming job interview. We are incredibly grateful to be part of such an amazing scheme which brings Londoners together to lift up those in their communities and ensure no one goes without this winter.''
Selina Patel from Hammersmith and Fulham Foodbank, commented: "When people are struggling to feed themselves, it’s hard to think about anything that isn’t necessary for survival. Giving coats to people feels like a lovely treat for them. They can choose their favourite colour or style, and the ability to empower people in that way is absolutely wonderful.”
