Edgetech, a Quanex company, have been spreading festive cheer by supporting a series of charitable initiatives which aid both local and global communities.
Edgetech and Quanex are committed to championing education and the next generation. Therefore, they were delighted to donate school supplies to Walsgrave Academy, a Coventry primary school.
Edgetech is also passionate about helping to tackle hunger in the UK, especially in the current climate when people are struggling to afford basic necessities. Consequently, their generous staff contributed 197 items to Coventry Food Bank as part of a global food drive organised by Quanex. Each item was matched by a £5 donation by Quanex, totalling £985.
The company delved into the holiday spirit by supporting the Samaritan’s Purse’s Operation Christmas Child campaign, which provides disadvantaged children with a box of gifts. Employees were given time off to volunteer at their local Operation Christmas Child processing centre, where they organised and packed gift boxes to be sent to recipients all around the world.
Edgetech have also continued their annual support for industry charity initiatives, including purchasing the Christmas Hope House Children’s Hospice print from GM Fundraising and donating to the present drive in aid of CATCH Leeds organised by NFA’s Lee Clarke.
Edgetech’s Head of Marketing Charlotte Hawkes comments: “This year, Quanex launched a new initiative: “a part of something bigger”.
“As a company, we know we’re part of a much bigger society and community. We are very cognisant of the fact that everything we do has an impact on thousands if not millions of people across the globe and we’re focused on making that impact a positive one.
“As part of that, we’re committed to helping our local area, as well as worthwhile causes worldwide.
“We hope these donations will bring some happiness and security to people who may be struggling during this especially challenging year.”
