It seems almost a lifetime ago that the UK population was asked to ‘Stay Home to Save Lives.’ As we are all aware, since then (three months ago if you can believe it) the NHS and its key workers have worked day and night, putting their own lives at risk in order to rescue and treat thousands of people.
As mentioned in a previous blog, many organisations and individuals have been showing their gratitude for their health service in lots of different ways. Whether it be taking part in the weekly clap, giving free or discounted goods for NHS staff, or donating monetary contributions to associated NHS charities, it has been encouraging to see so many of us appreciate their unparalleled level of diligence and selflessness.
You may recall that we talked about doing our bit too. Back in April, we pledged to match any donations made by our members to the HEROES charity. HEROES rely on contributions from donors, volunteers and partners to help the frontline NHS staff.
We’re absolutely delighted to say that, because of the generosity of you, our members, we have reached an amazing sum of £18,000. We’d like to say a huge, heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated their cashback to this fantastic cause.
HEROES Co-founder Dr Dominic Pimenta says: “At HEROES we are constantly humbled and inspired by the generosity of individuals and organisations during this national health crisis. From enabling HEROES to fund the production of much needed PPE to offering NHS staff small financial grants - it's support like TopCashback and their members that means we can go that much further to help NHS staff in the fight against COVID-19.”
Fairness and generosity are at the heart of TopCashback’s ethos, which is why we will always provide our members with the option of paying out their cashback to a charity of their choice. For those of you who would like to donate to HEROES or any other not for profit organisation, simply follow the steps on our original blog.
