The Benefact Group has donated £200m to charities since setting its first giving target in 2014, supporting more than 10,000 charities over the past decade and making the Group is the third largest corporate donor in the UK.
Commenting on reaching the £200m giving mark, Mark Hews, CEO of Benefact Group, said: "Charitable giving is at the heart of what we do, so I’m thrilled to have been able to donate this incredible sum to good causes. Owned by a charity, all of our available profits go to good causes, and the more the Group grows, the more the Group can give. Our giving would not be possible without the support of our brokers, customers, partners, and colleagues, and so I would like to thank every person who has helped us reach this incredible milestone.”
In addition to its giving, Benefact Group also helps charities through its advice and support, which includes fundraising guidance, colleague volunteering, webinars, and online resources. Earlier this year, the Group published its Value of Giving report, demonstrating the value and socio-economic benefits of charities to the UK economy, and the Group is on track to meet its ambition of giving £250 million to charities by the end of 2025.
The Benefact Group family of brands includes Ecclesiastical, Ansvar, EdenTree Investment Management, SEIB Insurance Brokers, Lycetts Insurance Brokers and Lloyd & Whyte.
