Three good causes in the Burnham-On-Sea area have this week benefited from a fundraising scheme at Asda’s Highbridge store.
The supermarket encourages customers to vote for their favourite groups by dropping tokens into collecting boxes – and those that attract the most receive a cash donation.
MNDA (Motorneurone Disease Association) received the most tokens during December and one of its team is pictured receiving a £100 donation from the store’s Community Life Champion, Kim Blyth.
Axbridge Playmates Nursery and the Sounds and Voices talking newspaper also received £25 each for taking part in the vote. All three groups said they were grateful for the donations.
Kim told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “Asda strives to support the local community around each store and get the whole community involved. This allows many different causes the chance to not only raise funds, but also generate awareness.”
To propose a local group or charity, pick up a nomination form which can be found on the community board in the foyer of the Highbridge store.
