St Mary's would like to thank the staff at Furness College Barrow, for presenting a cheque for £260. The money was raised from the St Mary's Christmas Share a Card scheme which the college ran throughout December.
In the run up to Christmas St Mary's encourages workplaces to swap Christmas cards for a free A3 poster which everyone in the office can sign. Money otherwise spent on sending each other cards can be popped into the accompanying charity collection box.
Share a Card allows people to give at Christmas to a charity where it is needed most: a Christmas card may only last a few weeks, but your donations will leave a legacy for a long time to come. In 2010 a total of £2442.54 was raised from the scheme.
