OfficeTeam, the provider of specialised administrative personnel, has donated £6,064.79
to Breast Cancer Care, its corporate charity of the year.
OfficeTeam has run a number
of national and local initiatives to raise money for the charity. The key nationwide
campaign, called “Hired to Help”, has meant that both clients and candidates play
a role in raising money for Breast Cancer Care. As part of this initiative OfficeTeam
donated £1 to Breast Cancer Care for each candidate placed. In addition to the nationwide
campaign, OfficeTeam sponsored a table at the Breast Cancer Care fashion show on
9 October 2002, and invited clients who were encouraged to make donations at the
exclusive event.

Local offices have also played an active role in raising money by placing donation
boxes, raffles and pink ribbon pins in every reception. Some local offices have 
undertaken more unusual fundraising initiatives including a football tournament 
in Bristol, a sponsored walk in Southampton, and all OfficeTeam employees in the
Guildford office raised money by wearing pink towels for a day.
