The currency blog

Currencies Direct is very proud to say that every charity we support with our Dress Down Friday and other fund raising activities, is democratically chosen by it’s employees. Over the past year we have been supporting 3 charities per month and following a Positive FX questionnaire, the results showed that whilst employees would still like to support a number of charities, they would prefer to make more of a difference and so going forward we will be supporting 3 charities for 2 months at a time.

A list of charities made up from suggestions within the office, was handed around this week for people to vote on their favourite 9. The winning 9 charities, along with their scores are shown below with the months that we will be fundraising for them!

July/ August

Marie Curie Cancer Care - 122
Wilderness Africa Trust - 49
Right To Play - 63

September/ October

Amnesty International - 60
