Chameleon supports the following charitable organisations and is doing some amazing things to raise funds to support them.
For 2009 we are helping to raise funds for:
Sleepless nights
Byte Night is the IT industry’s annual sleep out in support of Action for Children. Each year hundreds of individuals and teams from the technology and IT industries spend a night exposed to the elements in a bid to raise sponsorship and awareness of Action for Children’s work.
We believe there should be no reason for anyone (unless of course it is their chosen lifestyle) in the developed world to be without a roof over their heads. It shouldn’t need to happen.
So towards the second half of the year you will hear from us as we build up for our night out on the streets. There will be 2 Chameleons taking part and we are hoping to raise over £4,000 so dig deep everyone!
And a long term basis, albeit in a smaller way………
Educating the next generation of PR stars
Helen, founder and managing director of Chameleon, is on a weekly basis e-mentoring a budding PR professional via the Social Mobility Foundation. The Foundation aims to bring the brightest A Level students from financially disadvantaged backgrounds to professional or business life in time for them to make informed choices for higher education and their future career.
Prejudice and hatred
The Anne Frank Trust UK is the British partner organisation of the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam. Their mission is to draw on the power of Anne Frank’s life and diary to challenge prejudice and reduce hatred, encouraging people to embrace positive attitudes, responsibility and respect for others.
The Trust delivers educational programmes across the UK reaching at least 125,000 individuals every year. They have a staff team of 12 supported by an internship programme and over 200 volunteers.
Two of the key values at Chameleon surround respect and responsibility – for ourselves and those around us – and we know a continued, relentless, programme to educate and raise awareness of the need to eradicate the tensions and disruptions that affect people’s lives is required to change attitudes. We fully support the work the Anne Frank Trust has achieved to date and will go on to achieve in the future.
