 Over 100 key individuals from the commercial property industry gathered together on Thursday 3 February to celebrate the first year of LandAid’s successful Foundation Partner Scheme – designed to support the industry charity’s work in transforming the lives of disadvantaged young people. Due to the success of the scheme LandAid will be able to commit £1million to projects in 2011.
At the reception kindly held by Hogan Lovells it was also announced that Grainger had become the latest organisation to become a Foundation Partner following recent new recruits Ashurst, DTZ, Easter Group, Montagu Evans and The Blackstone Group.
Rob Bould LandAid Fundraising Chairman (Chief Executive of GVA) said: “The success of the Foundation Partner Scheme has been integral to LandAid’s strong growth and has increased our net income this year by 25% which will allow us to commit £1million in 2011 towards projects that benefit disadvantaged young people by providing the facilities, opportunities and support they need to reach their potential.”
Robin Broadhurst, LandAid Chairman (Chairman of Grainger plc) said: “Youth unemployment is at the highest level since records began (20.3% amongst 16-24 year olds) and many young people are struggling to get on and having to cope with multiple challenges such as homelessness and a lack of qualifications. By working together through LandAid and becoming a Foundation Partner the sector can make a real difference and ensure that a generation of young people is not written off.”
