CITY Building, a leading Glasgow-based construction firm with a unique social ethos of building a more sustainable future for all, has raised almost £7,000 for Breast Cancer Now.
As part of its commitment to giving back, the company has undertaken several fundraising initiatives to support the UK’s largest breast cancer research and care charity.
Most recently, City Building’s manufacturing division, Royal Strathclyde Blindcraft Industries (RSBi) – the largest supported employer in the UK – hosted a special afternoon tea event at its premises.
The event raised an impressive £935, bringing employees together to support Breast Cancer Now’s vital work and enhancing RSBi’s focus on social inclusion. RSBi provides employment and training opportunities for individuals with disabilities, with more than half of its workforce having additional learning needs or a physical disability.
Earlier this year, City Building made a significant corporate donation of £5,000 to Breast Cancer Now, while a successful Wear It Pink Day raised £970 for the same cause.
Through these efforts, City Building has contributed a total of £6,955 to Breast Cancer Now over the past year. These donations will help fund life-saving research and provide much-needed support for those affected by breast cancer across the UK.
City Building’s Executive Director, Alan Burns, said:
“We are incredibly proud of our contribution to Breast Cancer Now. The fundraising events organised by our people have also been great fun, uniting our teams for a fantastic cause.
“City Building’s social ethos goes beyond construction, and we are committed to building a sustainable and caring community for everyone. Supporting charities such Breast Cancer Now is integral to upholding our values, and we look forward to continuing our fundraising efforts in the future.”
Breast Cancer Now is the UK’s largest breast cancer charity, combining world-class research and life-changing support. City Building’s continued support will help drive the charity’s mission of creating a world where everyone diagnosed with breast cancer lives—and is supported to live well.
