TACC Christmas Donations Print E-mail

TACC is pleased to announce that we are donating a total of £10,000 for our 2021 Christmas donations.

 

The money will go to 3 organisations supporting disadvantaged children in Scotland - Includem (across Scotland), AberNecessities (Aberdeenshire) and

Pennypit Community Development Trust (East Lothian).

 

Includem works with disadvantaged children and their families to help them transform their lives.

Our donation will be used, in conjunction with some other funding, to offer a Christmas treat for ~450 children.

This might take the form of toys, board games, clothes, food hampers or even a Christmas experience such as a panto.

 

AberNecessities supports underprivileged families with the essential items they need to care for their babies and children, helping alleviate the pressure of

bringing up a young family with extremely limited resources.

Our donation will be used for new beds/bedding for children currently sleeping on a mattress on the floor (or a sofa).

Also some basic toiletries for teenagers.

 

Pennypit CDT is focused on improving health/well-being and reducing inequalities in families affected by poverty in the local community.

Our donation will support their Winter Essentials program to provide winter clothing for 70 local children.

 

We couldn't make these donations without your support, so thanks again to everyone who has supported TACC in 2021.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

All we want for Christmas is for Scotland to win their next 2 matches !!!

 
 
TACC Ukraine Donation Print E-mail
 Ukraine War
???????? TACC Special Donation for Ukrainian Refugees in Moldova????????
Given Scotland is scheduled to play Ukraine 4 times this year, we had already planned to make some kind of charity donation in the country. The Russian invasion has changed everything of course. Therefore the TACC Trustees have decided to send a donation ASAP to support children & families who are being displaced by the war.
We are donating £5000 across 2 charities (Stella’s Voice and Crosslinks) and the money will be used exclusively for children & families fleeing from Ukraine to Moldova. The folks at Crosslinks were involved with our donation in Moldova last year, and with Moldova being a poor country they will need plenty of help supporting Ukrainain refugees. Our thoughts are with all of these people in terrible circumstances.????????????????????????????????????????
