VeryPC gift keeps Emmaus Sheffield team on their toes
It’s a case of best feet forward as homelessness charity Emmaus Sheffield enjoys a special gift from city company VeryPC.
The IT manufacturer has a stock of branded and award-winning socks which it presents to customers as thank you gifts.
And this year they are also donated some of those sock to local homelessness organisations, including Emmaus Sheffield.
Emmaus Sheffield is the working community with quality, self-contained accommodation, training facilities and a workspace for previously homeless men and women aged 18 years and over.
It aims through its Social Enterprise programme to provide meaningful work and enable the people it supports – known as companions - to eventually become self-supporting once more.
“We were delighted to accept the socks, which will certainly help our companions stay warm as the cold weather continues,” said Emmaus Sheffield Marketing and Development Manager Charley Fedorenko.
“This is definitely one of our more unusual donations but one that will have a truly positive impact and we’d like to thank the Very PC team for thinking of us.”
