One penny from every pack of unearthed® goes to Action Against Hunger, which supports the lives of children suffering from life-threatening malnutrition. unearthed® has supported this fantastic humanitarian charity since 2010 and in November 2022 our donations hit the £1 million mark. We’re proud to be its second biggest financial contributor.
To celebrate this major milestone, in 2023 some of the unearthed® team joined Action Against Hunger ambassadors in Peru to trek over 26 miles up to Machu Picchu, at the same time raising an additional £20,000 for the charity.
Seeing those pennies add up has inspired all of us to get more involved with the charity, and we’ve since visited the projects we fund in Africa, taken part in fundraising runs, bake-offs and bike races, and continued to enthusiastically spread the message of Action Against Hunger’s vital work.
Matt McAuliffe, Group Innovation & Product Development Director, and Carrie Hollis-Patel, Head of unearthed® Marketing, were two of our trekkers who saw the charity’s work first hand in Peru.
Action Against Hunger does incredible work with children suffering from malnutrition. Seeing for ourselves how our partnership helps their activities was extremely rewarding, and has inspired us all to do more to support the charity and consider ways we can tackle food poverty as a business.
