**Online auction site Givergy has chosen Purple Heart Wishes to benefit from its
prize draw for a VIP hospitality experience at Manchester United.**

The fundraising opportunity was offered to one lucky charity by Givergy as part 
of its sponsorship of [The Nicest Job in Britain](http://www.nicestjobinbritain.co.uk),
a not-for-profit initiative which helps charities across the UK do more good.

The scheme recently asked charities to apply to request a visit from the company’s
National Philanthropy Manager. It was inundated with applications, with over 100
charities putting their name forward in the first 72 hours, that sponsor Givergy
offered the prize as a thank you.

Hundreds of charities applied, and Purple Heart Wishes, which supports adults aged
over 18 with a terminal illness, was selected at random.
