Asthma UK, Morrisons Charity of the Year celebrates its 80th birthday in October, and Morrisons wants to make it the best ever. Throughout October, customers can purchase any of the 54 featured products*, and the supermarket and its suppliers will make a donation to the charity, to help fund vital research projects to support the 5.2 million people with asthma in the UK.
The 54 everyday products include:
• 10p donation from every pack of Morrisons Kitchen Roll
• 10p donation from every jar of Morrisons Creamy Mushroom Cooking Sauce
• 25p donation from packs of selected Huggies Nappies
• 10p donation from every 390g bar of Galaxy Chocolate Bar
• 25p donation from every pack of Morrisons Charity Christmas Cards
So far during the Charity of the Year partnership, more than half a million pounds has been raised through fundraising activity in Morrisons stores nationwide. It is hoped that sales of these featured products and other activity will help to raise more than £1 million during the year.
Colin Middlemiss, PR Controller for Morrisons said, “Our customers should shop as normal, but by choosing these products they can help raise money for Asthma UK. This is such an easy and practical way to help a good cause, and we hope customers will get on board to help our Charity of the Year, Asthma UK."
Kate Pollard, Corporate Team Manager at Asthma UK said, “This is a fantastic opportunity for us and we urge customers to dig deep into their pockets and buy some products that will help raise money towards changing the lives of millions of people with asthma. We are positive that Morrisons staff and customers can raise a significant amount of money during October and help make our 80th birthday present one to remember!"
