ELLON-headquartered Phil Anderson Financial Services Ltd has donated £5,000 to local children’s charity. Ellon-based Rainbow Rogues has worked with vulnerable children and their families across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire since 2005 and in recent weeks they have been fund raising to keep their doors open.
Commenting on the donation Phil Anderson, Managing Director at Phil Anderson Financial Services said “We are delighted to be supporting Rainbow Rouges. It is a charity that is very close to my heart as I have a son with special needs who attended Rainbow Rogues when he was younger. I have seen first hand the excellent work the team there do, and we hope our donation can make a difference.”
The team at Rainbow Rogues work across educational, social and health agencies playing an essential role in children’s pre-nursery and primary school transition phases, helping their families identify the most appropriate learning settings.
Keri Craig, charity manager, said “We are very thankful to Phil Anderson Financial Services for this kind donation. Covid-19 gave us so many challenges and it severely impacted our fund-raising. Amid the cost-of-living crisis, it is very difficult to ask for money, but we’re asking anyone that can support us to help with whatever is possible. We have real concerns for the families we work with should the respite we provide stop.”
The charity has set up a fund-raising page for donations which can be found at – https://wonderful.org/pay?ref=SC046756
