A Hertfordshire children's charity is looking for businesses in Watford and Croxley Green to take part in a new corporate fundraising initiative.

Hope for Children (HOPE), based in Hemel Hempstead, is launching Your Business, Their Lives on Tuesday, May 26, and has invited businesses in Watford and Croxley Green to join the venture.

Companies that sign up will receive bespoke corporate responsibility strategies designed to meet their individual needs whist enabling the initiative together to deliver life-changing projects around the world.

HOPE chief executive, Murielle Maupoint, said: "With the right partner, every company whether it’s a start-up or a multinational can benefit from establishing a culture of philanthropy in their workplace.

"Your Business, Their Lives is more than just a charity partnership. It’s a platform to showcase your brand and values.

"It’s an opportunity to engage with your staff and motivate them in a completely new way.

"Most importantly, it’s a chance for your team and your company to leave a lasting legacy by changing the lives of some of the most vulnerable children in the world and helping them to reach their full potential."

Organisations already signed up include Argentinian restaurant group Malevo Group, the north-west branches of artisan coffee chain Harris + Hoole, fitness franchise Wild Training and Zonal Retail Data Systems.
