Miller Homes has made a generous donation of £2,000 to a young carer’s charity in the heart of its local community after hearing of the great work they do when they applied to the housebuilder’s twice yearly Community Fund.
The monies were gifted to The Junction Foundation, based near Redcar, which helps young carers and their families offering support and guidance in challenging situations.
“When we read the application from The Junction Foundation to our Community Fund we knew we had to support them,” said Donna Clark, Sales Director, Miller Homes Yorkshire. “The work they do is so important and delivers such a huge impact on so many families and young people, it is most admirable and we believe a valued part of our community.”
The £2000 was donated to help the charity host its Young Carers Celebration event, where young carers are invited to a lunch and celebration of the amazing things they do for their families.
Thomas Breckon, Sales Manager and Donna Hart, Marketing Manager from Miller Homes Teesside attended the event at Pinchinthorpe Hall in Guisborough.
Rebecca Jones, Fundraising and Events Manager, The Junction Foundation commented; “Having support from businesses in our community is vital to our ongoing work and we thank Miller Homes for their donation. We look forward to working with them in the future as we continue to deliver this vital service for our community and young people.”
Established since 1991, the charity delivers a range of services to provide children, young people and their families with holistic support based on their needs, helping them to face life’s challenges with positivity.
Donna concluded; “It was a pleasure for some of the team to attend this event and see first-hand the work that they do. Thank you to the team and all guests for making us feel so welcome, and we are proud to have also sponsored their inaugural charity golf day.”
Other charities and groups which received donations from the Community Fund on this occasion include Ormesby Boxing Academy, St Ann’s Partnership Ltd, Dementia Action Teesside, The Pieman PT Foundation and Cleveland Junior Reds FC U16.
From the coastal beauty of Beaconfield Rise at Marske-by-the-Sea to the town centre location of Portside Village in Middlesbrough, Miller Homes has ample choice for those searching for a brand-new home in the region.
