Leading social mobility charity, WeMindTheGap, is excited to share that one of its employer partners, Valto, has raised an incredible £500 in sponsorships for their recent sponsored run. As a show of their commitment to supporting young people in bridging the opportunity gap, Valto have decided to match these funds, bringing the total raised to £1,000.
Based in Chester city centre, Valto with their slogan “The Best Microsoft Partner in the World” are specialists in Microsoft 365 products such as Azure, SharePoint and Power Platform. The business organised a team of dedicated runners to participate in the run, raising awareness and funds for WeMindTheGap. Employees came together for the cause, showcasing the power of teamwork.
WeMindTheGap is a charity that works tirelessly to provide underprivileged young people with the skills, experience, and confidence they need to succeed in the world of work. This remarkable donation from Valto will support the charity’s ongoing programmes, which create life-changing opportunities.
Ali Wheeler, CEO of WeMindTheGap, expressed her gratitude: “We are incredibly grateful to the Valto team for their generous support and dedication to our cause. Their enthusiasm and commitment to making a difference in the lives of young people are truly inspiring. These funds will go a long way in helping us continue our work in providing essential opportunities and support to those who need it most.”
Hugh Valentine, CEO of Valto, commented on the event: “At Valto, we believe in empowering the next generation of professionals. Partnering with WeMindTheGap is a perfect alignment of our values, and we are proud of our team’s efforts in raising these funds.
