North West Christmas
20th December 2017
Caribbean Community Group - Hulme
£5,000
One of the volunteers at a local community support group for the elderly was thrilled when she thought our Hulme store's community champion Angela McIntosh had donated £500 ... so watch this video to see her reaction when she realised the cheque was actually for £5,000! Angela had gone along to help at the African Caribbean Care Group's Christmas party when she presented the group's chief executive Dorothy Evans with the £5,000 grant from the Asda Foundation. Dorothy said: "Being able to work with Asda has been absolutely fantastic."     .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }

Mindwise - Shore Road
£2,000
A lovely care facility that helps support local people with mental health issues and although its main aim is about emotional and practical support for the day to day activities that most of us take for granted it also aims to protect life and reduce suicide and self-harm, the funds will help with more music and laughter therapy sessions throughout the year.

Grangetown Community Concern - Cardiff Bay
£5,000
This organisation brings people together from all around the area, they are also in the midst of a large scale project to restore the local pavilion where they host most of these events, and the store via the Asda Foundation supported a local and elderly event earlier in the year. The Asda Foundation thought a surprise grant of £5,000 would help ease the burden of fundraising for regular events and the pavilion. This way they can use the funds for regular events and put all their fundraising efforts in to the pavilion.
