Story

At Affinity Workforce, we believe in making a difference to the communities we work in. That's why this year, we're partnering with Shelter as our Charity of the Year. Now, we invite you to sponsor us in our Give It Up challenge this June.

What is the Give It Up challenge?

The Give It Up challenge asks participants to give up something they love for one month. Whether they’re a coffee lover, obsessed with chocolate or fancy going veggie, this challenge asks that they commit to giving something up for one month and ask for sponsorship from friends, family and colleagues. We’ll be sharing some of the pledges across our social media channels – keep your eyes peeled!

Why are we supporting Shelter?

Shelter is at the forefront of the housing emergency, providing crucial support, legal advice, and advocacy to those affected by homelessness. The statistics are staggering— in February 2024, there were 142,490 children who are homeless – a jump of 16,960 (14%) in a year. Right now, there are 279,400 people, many of them families, are living in temporary accommodation across the UK. These are not just numbers; they represent families facing daily struggles for stability and survival. We’re fundraising to support Shelter’s work to solve this crisis.

How can you support?

Our staff are making a pledge to give up something they love in June 2024. You can support by sponsoring their efforts. All donations will go directly to Shelter to fund their work to solve the housing emergency and support people effected by homelessness.
