Nimlok supports the Andrew Grene Foundation by eating cakes!

Aug. 31, 2010 - PRLog -- Over 400 cakes were produced and sold from 8am until 4pm and the Nimlok staff eating them were delighted!  Most people had a cake for breakfast and lunch and it didn’t stop there.  The larger cakes were being bought for the families of the Nimlok staff.

The Andrew Grene Foundation is close to the hearts of the Nimlok staff as the Managing Director of the Wellingborough based exhibition and display stand solutions company Nimlok, Tim Perutz, lost his closest friend in the Haiti earthquake.  He, along with Andrew’s twin brother Gregory, set up the Andrew Grene Foundation in memory of their special brother and friend that was Andrew.  Tim and Gregory recently went on a trip to Haiti to investigate where they could spend the money that has been raised so far.  Tim’s colleagues at Nimlok were keen to hear about his trip and enjoyed a slide show presentation from Tim showing photos from his trip and a question and answer session afterwards.  Staff were so moved by the photos and hearing about Tim’s experiences over there, they wanted to help to.

Allison Evans, an employee at Nimlok, commented; “After Tim’s talk and the photo’s we saw of Haiti, we felt inspired to do something to help so we are suggesting a ‘Big Push’ for the month with four events planned, one each week, for the Nimlok staff to participate in and donate all of the funds to the Andrew Grene Foundation”.

The next event takes place on Friday 3rd September and is titled ‘Saucy Sausage Friday’!  Watch this space for the story after the event has taken place.
