Sponsored charities of the year

We have chosen Project Ruth as our sponsored charity of the year.

Helping to give a children a brighter future!

Project Ruth

Project Ruth is an educational and charitable program run in Romania which offers life changes to disadvantaged children through education, day centre activities, medical help,Children at School in Romania hygiene support and humanitarian aid.

Their services ensure that poor children receive a primary education which provides necessary support to keep them where they belong - in a family environment.

140 children are currently enrolled at Grades I - V at the Ruth School in Bucharest and the school is expanding to offer Grades VI - VIII. Project Ruth is also working together with other organisations to help Roma (gypsy) children in other parts of Romania and Moldova. Over 100 children are currently involved in these smaller projects.

Project Ruth's main emphasis is to work among Roma communities, but they do not exclude children on grounds of race, colour or gender, seeking instead to encourage integration and acceptance of others.

Our second sponsored charity is CURE LEUKAEMIA which is a registered charity established to support a Leukaemia centre in the Midlands. It is based at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham and its objectives are aimed at specifically addressing the needs of Leukaemia and Multiple Myeloma patients across the region.

Clive Rose"We are delighted to be involved with these two important charities. During 2006 we have sent in excess of £10,000 worth of clothing to the children at Project Ruth in Rumania and the feedback and photographs we receive is heart-warming.

Closer to the Clive Mark Group Head Office in Birmingham is the new Leukaemia Centre based at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Again we are delighted to be associated with this charity. At our recently held Staff function a charity raffle was held with the proceeds going to Cure Leukaemia. All the Clive Mark retail stores have collection boxes. Our staff are extremely enthusiastic about supporting both our chosen charities and look forward to further fundraising initiatives during the coming year."
