DF Capital, the newly authorised specialist commercial lending and personal savings bank, today announced that it is donating a grand total of £5,500 to Wood Street Mission as a result of its employees’ fundraising efforts over the past year.
These funds have been earmarked for the charity’s ‘Family Basics’ 2021 project, whereby low-income families are provided with the day-to-day essential items that they need for their children.
The final total included monies raised through events – such as the bank’s ‘Walk to Lapland’ and ‘Manchester to New York’ initiatives – match funding on employee donations and a contribution on behalf of customers. One of DF Capital’s investors, Watrium AS, also pledged an additional £500 if a 57-mile detour to its headquarters in Oslo was added to the virtual Lapland journey.
