This year, Huhtamaki UK will be supporting Macmillan Cancer Support, with a donation of 9oz paper vending cups for the charity’s flagship fundraising event ‘World’s Biggest Coffee Morning’ on 27th September 2013.
Designed in partnership with Kenco, the Official Coffee Partner to the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning, the paper vending cups aim to raise awareness of the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning and feature a ‘text to donate’ message as part of the design with all proceeds going to Macmillan. The cups will be distributed to Kenco’s customers, including contract caterers and vending operators to support coffee mornings across the country.
John Young, UK Foodservice Sales & Marketing Director, Huhtamaki UK Ltd voices his support:
“The famous ‘World’s Biggest Coffee Morning’ by Macmillan is a fantastic fundraising event. We are really proud to be able to support this campaign for the third year running, by helping the charity to create a bespoke cup for the event. We hope that they raise loads of money again this year.”
Zoe Williams, Marketing Manager at Kenco Professional commented:
“We are delighted that Huhtamaki is helping support Macmillan’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning for the third year in a row. With their help, we want to make a difference and raise as much money as possible for Macmillan to help them ensure that no one faces cancer alone. The cup features a ‘Text to Donate’ facility encouraging consumers to donate £1.50 which could fund three copies of The Cancer Guide. This Macmillan booklet can help someone recently diagnosed with cancer, and their families, understand more about cancer, its treatment, and the help available.”
