HealthTrust Europe is a company that takes its corporate social responsibility seriously. For six consecutive years, the company has been striving to positively impact the communities it serves, selecting a charity to support each calendar year
This year’s proceeds will go to The Miscarriage Association, a UK-based charity that provides support and information to people affected by miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy and molar pregnancy. HealthTrust Europe’s donation will help the charity to continue providing vital services to those in need.
During the cheque handover ceremony, representatives from HealthTrust Europe and Karn Dyson from The Miscarriage Association gathered to celebrate the partnership and express their mutual dedication to making a difference to families across the community.
The Miscarriage Association’s Fundraising Manager, Karn Dyson, was delighted to visit a recent “All Hands” meeting at HealthTrust Europe’s Edgbaston site to be presented with the cheque and thank colleagues for their generosity. During this meeting, she also shared details of how the funds would be utilised.
Karn said, “The Miscarriage Association is a national charity providing support and information to anyone who is affected by miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy or molar pregnancy. It provides staffed helpline services, in-person and online peer support groups, a comprehensive website, patient information leaflets, and training for healthcare professionals and employers.
“The £6,333 raised by HealthTrust Europe will go a long way towards supporting over 8,000 direct contact service users and helping to provide some of the 250,000 free leaflets we supply to the NHS each year. The team at Health Trust Europe was warm and welcoming. It showed a real interest and passion for fundraising in the workplace to help others in challenging situations. Thank you all for your generosity and hard work; it really is appreciated.”
The funds raised resulted from the Peak District Charity Walk, HealthTrust Europe Bake Off, Fundraising Raffle and many other event contributions, showcasing the company’s financial commitment and enthusiasm of its employees, which the ceremony’s attendees agreed demonstrated a corporate culture that values social responsibility and actively engages in initiatives to support the wider community.
Vivek Jain, Chief Financial Officer of HealthTrust Europe, said:
“We firmly believe in making a positive impact within our local communities and we are honoured to have been able to make a small difference to the lives of families across Birmingham. I am very grateful to colleagues across HealthTrust Europe who took part in the fundraising activities throughout 2023 and look forward to continuing our efforts to support important causes in the year ahead.”
