New charity partnership with Habitat for Humanity GB

Energy and utilities specialist group Majestic Securities Limited (owner of EIC, t-mac Technologies, Monarch Partnership, ESS, Welcome Energy and Smith Bellerby) are pleased to announce their official charity partnership with Habitat for Humanity Great Britain. As a member of the global charity Habitat for Humanity network, their aim is to fight housing poverty around the world.

 

Majestic has a strong commitment to continuous improvement in sustainable development, helping clients streamline their energy consumption, become more sustainable and manage the cost of utilities efficiently. Across our group of companies our people address the relationship between environmental stewardship, social responsibility, industry expectations, housing services, and business operations.

Our first fundraising initiative is to raise £20,000 and send 10 intrepid adventurers to Cambodia in November 2020 to work alongside a community in Battembang to build a much needed home for a local family. Our team of volunteers will get a rare glimpse of real communities and families, and a huge feeling of satisfaction that their trip will leave a lasting legacy of hope.

Peter Dosanjh, Majestic’s Chairman, says:

“Our vision is for a partnership which ‘builds thriving communities’ so we are thrilled to announce Habitat for Humanity GB will be our charity partner for 2020 and beyond. Each project we become involved with here in the UK and around the world will provide opportunities for employees to invest their time, energy and skills. Whether it’s fundraising in the office or physical labour helping to build homes, I know we will experience a great sense of achievement together. With our group of companies largely supplying utilities to buildings and homes we decided it was time to dedicate our charitable efforts towards something closer to home, quite literally! Habitat for Humanity, like us, believe that a good home is one of the most important things you can have in life.”

Tum Kazunga, CEO at Habitat for Humanity Great Britain, adds:

“There is an ongoing struggle in the world to eradicate housing poverty. Millions of people wake up every day without a decent place to live in. With partnerships such as the one with Majestic Group, we are able to get one step closer to our vision of a world where everyone has a safe place to call home. Supporting builds, such as the one in Cambodia, enables us to tackle the housing crisis in areas which would otherwise struggle to cope on their own.”
