Worcester-based technology company, Open GI, has smashed its 2016 charity target by raising a phenomenal £31,580 for St. Richard’s Hospice.
Each year, Open GI commits to supporting a local charity within the Worcestershire area and at the end of 2015, St. Richard’s Hospice was selected as the charity partner. Throughout 2016, employees across the business took it upon themselves to volunteer, raise awareness and, most importantly raise funds by taking part in sporting events such as the Paddle, Plod, Pedal and Worcester 10k as well as holding themed dress-down days and most recently a Christmas raffle.
Established in 1984, St. Richard’s Hospice cares for patients and families who are living with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses across Worcestershire. Their mission statement ‘Caring for Life’, is installed in the heart of everything they do, providing care to over 2,600 patients and family members each year.
