KP Simpson, a Jarrow based accountant, has recently been made a sponsor of global NGO Coaches Across Continents. CAC help educate young people in developing countries about health, diseases, leadership, and feminism, all through using soccer.
The accountancy firm is specifically supporting CAC’s yearlong partnership with Association Internationale Femmes et Population, based in Cameroon. Their aim to help achieve UN Sustainable Development Goal 5: Gender Equality. They specifically do it with young people that are at risk in their community where there are social challenges such as equal access to education and healthcare and saving them from a life of substance abuse where drugs and alcohol are rife.
Over the last six months CAC have supported AIFP in creating an event on International Women’s day promoting female empowerment. They have also helped create a play-based curriculum which helps address UNSDG five, helping teach the children about the importance of gender equality.
KP Simpson have already supported Coaches Across Continents by doing their accountancy at a lower price, so there is more money to spend on helping the children.
This isn’t the first time KP Simpson have helped a charity. Just earlier this year they hosted a Pink & Blue day to raise money for the Chloe & Liam foundation, set up in the memory of a young couple killed at the Manchester Arena bombing.
We always know that these companies will partner with charities and then never see anything come of it, this quote from the founder of CAC, Nick Gates, shows how valuable KP Simpson’s sponsorship is for the charity, “On behalf of CAC and our partners AIFP in Cameroon we are delighted to work with KP Simpson CPA. Thanks to their fantastic support we are able to offer integral resources and consultancy to AIFP as they provide life-changing educational opportunities to at-risk youth in their community through play.”
CAC are celebrating their tenth anniversary this year and have helped over 16 million people in over 110 countries by working with governments, corporations, foundations and community based-organizations. KP Simpson’s sponsorship is sure to help make a difference in the lives of many young people far away from the North East.
