14 May Gray & Adams Doncaster Annual Christmas Outreach Initiative
Gray & Adams Doncaster is proud of the success of the annual Christmas outreach initiative, where in December 2024 an incredible £5,500 was raised for two outstanding local charities. This achievement marks yet another milestone in a five-year tradition of generosity, community spirit, and a commitment to giving back to those in need.
Each year the funds are split between two meaningful causes: the Hits Radio South Yorkshire Mission Christmas Cash for Kids appeal and the Sheffield Children’s Hospital. With this contribution, the Mission Christmas appeal was able to provide toys and gifts to children across South Yorkshire who might otherwise have gone without during the festive season. Meanwhile, the donation to Sheffield Children’s Hospital supported the hospital’s efforts to provide care and comfort to young patients and their families, ensuring that children facing challenging times felt a sense of hope and joy over Christmas.
A particularly heartwarming moment this year was the delivery of the donated toys to the charities by Scott Sherwin and Kim Bell, representing the Gray & Adams Doncaster team. Reflecting on the experience, Kim said:
“It was an absolute privilege to deliver the toys to such wonderful causes on behalf of everyone at Gray & Adams Doncaster, our customers and suppliers. The fact that the generosity has increased every year, despite the cost of living going up just shows the kind of people we have around us. We’re incredibly proud to support these charities and help make Christmas a little brighter for those in need.”
The success of this initiative over the last five years would not be possible without the unwavering support of our incredible network of customers, suppliers, and employees. Their generosity and enthusiasm for helping others truly embody the spirit of the season. From contributions to fundraising efforts, everyone involved has gone above and beyond to support these two amazing causes.
The Christmas outreach initiative has become a cornerstone of Gray & Adams Doncaster’s community efforts, and it’s inspiring to see the difference we can make together year after year. As we reflect on this year’s success, we’re reminded of the power of coming together as a team and a community to bring joy to others during a season that should be filled with hope, happiness, and giving.
At Gray & Adams, we believe in the importance of giving back, and initiatives like this reinforce our values and commitment to supporting local charities that make a real difference.
To everyone who has contributed over the last five years, we thank you for your kindness, compassion, and generosity. Together, we’ve made a significant impact, raising over £13.5k since 2020, and we couldn’t have done it without you. We look forward to continuing this wonderful tradition in 2025 and beyond!
