ML Supports EACH

East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH) is challenging local businesses and organisations to make as much money as they can from an initial stake of just £50.

The challenge is sponsored by local company ML Financial Associates, who have offices in both Wymondham and Northampton, and who won the scheme in 2015 by raising the most money.

Businesses and community groups across Norfolk are being encouraged to sign up to the £50 challenge which will see them handed a £50 note by the charity. Participants will then be given a 12 week period to invest the money in fundraising initiatives to generate the highest possible amount for EACH.

ML Financial Associates raised an impressive £2362.29 for the charity in 2015, decided to back this event by sponsoring the challenge and encouraging other businesses, organisations and community groups across the county to take part and try to break their record.

Each cares for children and young people with life-threatening conditions across East Anglia and supports their families. For both families accessing care, and those who have been bereaved, EACH is a lifeline at an unimaginably difficult time.

Carol Plunkett, EACH Norfolk fundraising Manager, said: “We’re really excited about the launch of our £50 challenge and would like to say a big thank you to ML Financial Associates for supporting the event.

We’re looking forward to hearing about the many weird and wonderful way participants will use their £50 and hope it inspires healthy competition between local businesses and colleagues to raise as much money as possible.”

The £50 can be invested in any legal and safe fundraising initiatives and is a great way to have fun, challenge yourself, inspire creativity and a great opportunity to build up team spirit. As part of the initiative, a minimum of £50 has to be raised within the agreed time or the initial £5 returned to the charity.
