Tesco cash machines donating to charity
I thought I’d start off with some good news for a change, something more charitable - a bank giving money to charity, well done Tesco Personal Finance!
From today until 28th of February 2009 all Tesco will be donating to the Marie Curie Cancer Care charity every time a customer uses a Tesco cash machine.
The new promotion from Tesco Personal Finance is expected to raise in the region of £33,000 for Marie Curie Cancer Care, which is fantastic!
Tesco Personal Finance Operations Director, Duncan McKinnell said: “Every time customers withdraw cash, check their balance, request a statement or even simply top up their mobile, we will be making a donation to Marie Curie Cancer Care.”
‘Through this promotion we’re hoping to fund over 1,500 extra hours of nursing care, at home, for people with terminal illnesses throughout the UK. So by simply doing something ordinary, like using a cash machine at Tesco the next time they go shopping, customers can help in providing extraordinary care’.
Marie Curie Cancer Care is the Tesco charity of the year and throughout the rest of 2008 Tesco staff and customers will be working towards raising £2.5 million which equates to 125,000 additional hours care for terminally ill patients in the UK.
