Clarien Bank Launch Annual Holiday GiveBack

November 24, 2014

Clarien Bank today [Nov 24] launched its eighth annual Holiday GiveBack programme, a donation initiative which encourages Clarien employees, customers and the entire community to collaboratively provide assistance to local charitable efforts during the season of giving.

The programme will again benefit Meals on Wheels, with the goal of providing important resources to an organisation that is committed to the needs to the community.

Ian Truran, CEO Clarien Bank, commented: “We are proud to launch the 2014 Clarien Holiday GiveBack programme, continuing our commitment to partner with charitable organisations such as Meals on Wheels to fulfill their mission of supporting those in need.”

“We are a resilient nation, committed to supporting one another through challenging times and the Clarien Holiday GiveBack programme is an opportunity for us to again show our collective strength by donating to an extraordinary cause.”

More than $11,000 was donated to Meals on Wheels during the 2013 programme. Clarien hopes to again encourage the community’s generosity in the season of giving to show their support for those who – for reasons of age, disability or health – depend on Meals on Wheels to deliver a nourishing cooked meal to their home.

“We understand the magnitude of support that Meals on Wheels provides to our community. That’s why the Clarien team is committed to providing more than donations to the organization – members of the staff will again volunteer to assist with meal preparation and delivery.”

Joe Gibbons, Director/Chairman of Meals on Wheels, commented: “The support of Clarien Bank has been invaluable, and we are again appreciative of the donations and volunteerism provided through the Holiday GiveBack Programme. The GiveBack programme allows us to provide vital resources during the holiday season, when we typically see an increased need for support.”

“On behalf of Meals on Wheels, I would like to thank Clarien for initiating a programme that encourages the entire community to collaboratively support our efforts – their partnership is critical to help support those who need it most.”
