Appco Group Fundraisers taken on sunshine trip

Appco Group Singapore has always been giving its fundraisers ample opportunities to undertake trips that help them assess their individual work and the company's work in general. In fact this is done by the company all over the world, at all times. Quite recently ten Spanish Fundraisers got the chance to undertake such a trip and see for themselves how their efforts in the field everyday could change lives.

Appco Group Support España held a competition open to all Spanish Field Representatives within the Charities Division. The top ten performers were then offered the chance to be flown to the Canary Islands to see a children’s charity at work. There they were taken to a special village where about 40 children live. This village provides ample care and also enables children to grow up in a warm, family atmosphere. The fundraisers were thrilled on seeing the fantastic work done by the social workers and the charity 'mothers' in the village. One of them commented, “When we go out and secure long-term donors for charities we are enabling them to carry out these kinds of vital projects. It has made me feel really proud that I am helping to make a difference”, and added, “...it enabled us to see how important the work we do is”

The Appco Group FRs also had the opportunity to take part in a thrilling go-karting competition.
