Fleet Alliance beats charity target and passes £100k mark
September 2012
Leasing and fleet management specialist Fleet Alliance has beaten the target for its inaugural charity ball by raising more than £25,000 for two highly deserving cancer charities, Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centres and the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice.
The monies raised from the evening, which was held at the at the Glasgow Marriott hotel and attended by Fleet Alliance customers, suppliers, local businesses, staff and their families, will be split equally between the two charities. Entertainment was provided by Scottish comedian, Sanjeev Kohli.
"The night exceeded even our best expectations," said Fleet Alliance managing director, Martin Brown, "and we would like to thank all those attending for their kind and generous donations.
"Over the last five years we have raised in excess of £100,000 for our nominated charity partners with Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centres being the main beneficiary, thanks to the efforts of our customers, suppliers and employees. We are also delighted to be supporting The Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice for the first time this year.
Brown added: "Staff here at Fleet Alliance have cycled, run, skydived and hiked in aid of our charities - with the generous support of clients and suppliers. Now, with the monies raised from our inaugural charity ball, we have broken the £100,000 barrier. It’s a truly remarkable effort."
Maggie's Cancer Caring Centres have been Fleet Alliance’s preferred charity for five years during which time the annual Maggie's Monster Bike and Hike has been a particular favourite. This event has raised over £4 million through the fund-raising efforts of almost 5,000 participants in a gruelling 30 mile cycle ride and 43 mile hike or run in the Highlands of Scotland.
In May of this year, Fleet Alliance acted as transport partner for the event, providing an assorted fleet of vehicles including people carriers for Maggie’s staff and volunteers, 4x4 vehicles for teams of off-road marshals, road cars for route marshals and medics and mini-buses for participants.
