For 12 days in the lead up to Christmas the specialist financial services group is giving £1,000 to twenty charities each day - with 240 charities in total benefitting from a festive financial boost.
Nominations are now open, and residents of Greater Manchester are being encouraged to nominate a cause they care about to give them a chance of receiving a share of the award money.
Draws will take place every weekday between 1st – 16th December and nominating is easy using the online form at www.movementforgood.com. Winners are drawn at random with every charity nominated in with a chance of winning a vital donation this Christmas.
Last year, The Canon Slade Association, based in Bolton, was a recipient of £1,000 in the draw.
Mark Hews, Group Chief Executive of Benefact Group, said: “We’re delighted to be launching our 12 Days of Giving campaign again this year, giving away £240,000 in donations to causes nationwide. We know how much charities need support, particularly during the festive season, so we’re asking the people of Greater Manchester to take a few minutes to nominate a cause that is particularly close to their hearts.
"We know that £1,000 can have a huge impact on incredible work that charities do and we’re looking forward to seeing how this financial boost will change lives for the better. Owned by a charity ourselves, Benefact Group donates all its available profits to good causes, which means that more the Group grows, the more it can give.”
Benefact Group has donated over £250million to charitable causes since 2014 and is the third biggest corporate giver in the UK* over the last decade.
