It may have been a while since our last charity posts here at Harper HQ, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been working hard planning fundraising events behind the scenes! We’ve fully embraced ‘Sweepstake Season’ with 3 charity sweepstakes taking place in recent months, with 50% of the winnings going into the charity tins for this year’s company charity Acorns Children’s Hospice.
We giddy-upped for The Grand National – won by our own dark horse and racing aficionado Marsh, from the accounts team.
We boom bang a bang’d with our glitter ball for Eurovision which was won by new kid on the block, Contracts Manager Karl.
⚽And finally, we’re hoping football really is coming home! With the 48 teams now drawn, World Cup fever has officially kicked off. Everyone in the office has drawn their country to cheer on and is decorating their desks with flags, fully embracing the spirit of the tournament in readiness for the start of the World Cup and Childrens Hospice Week.
The rivalry has already begun here at Harpers, with two of our secretaries set to go head-to-head tonight after drawing Spain and Cape Verde.
We can’t wait to see which nation comes out on top, but most importantly, every sweepstake is helping us raise valuable funds for Acorns Children’s Hospice and the incredible work they do.
Stay tuned for more fun-themed fundraising as we continue through the year!
