The Botanist shows its fundraising spirit
Local children’s charity Cash for Kids has benefitted from a £5,695 boost thanks to The Botanist.
After rounding off a busy fundraising spell, the donation will see disabled and disadvantaged children in the North East receive support to give them a better quality of life.
Cash for Kids was the bar’s chosen charity for the whole of 2016, with fundraising also continuing into early 2017. Activity included 25p from each children’s meal sold last year, as well as a discretionary £1 donation on diners’ bills throughout December, raising £4,950.
In addition, Newcastle team members Rob West and Beth Cole committed to running the Great North Run in aid of the charity, collecting over £700 between them.
Amy Dickinson, Charity Executive at Cash for Kids, said: “Cash for Kids have loved working with the team at The Botanist over the last year. They have offered incredible support on a number of projects and have raised a fantastic amount. We’d like to thank the staff for their commitment and generosity.”
