Fresh from launching the Host Environmental Pledge: Part 2. At Host, we’re pleased to announce that through the hard work of our students and on-site teams throughout 2018/19. Host has today (Wednesday 11th December) donated £20,000 to our three nominated charities of the year! Student Minds, Just a Drop and LandAid will each receive a proportion of the £20,000 to support the amazing work that each charity does.
Commenting on the donation. John Ripley, National Operations Director for Host said, “We are delighted to be able to make this donation to our three nominated charities from 2018/19. Sustainability and raising awareness of our environmental impact is a priority for everyone within the Host team. To be able to reduce our effect on the environment while supporting three great charities, by simply engaging and encouraging our students to pledge. To make a difference by making small changes such as turning off lights when leaving a room. Unplugging chargers. Or taking shorter showers has enabled us to make great savings on our energy usage while supporting these three great causes”.
“We are incredibly grateful that Host chose to support Student Minds through their incredibly worthwhile Environmental Pledge campaign. This fantastic donation will enable us to empower more students and members of the university community to look after their own mental health, support those around them and create change. On behalf of the whole Student Minds team, thank you!” – Kate Mitchell – Fundraising Officer.
“The donation from Host has enabled Just a Drop to bring safe water to the students at Mwambui Secondary School in Kenya for the first ever time. It’s making a massive difference. The students are not only healthier, they’re positive and confident. They attend school more often and are better able to focus on their lessons. The impact of the #HostEnvironmentalPledge is huge!” – Brendan Hanlon – Head of Fundraising and Communications.
“We are unbelievably thankful to Host for their fantastic Environmental Pledge campaign. The total raised is absolutely incredible. And will make such a fantastic difference to the lives of vulnerable young people who are in need of help!” – Paul Morrish – CEO.
