LEIDOS GRADUATES COLLECTION DRIVE
In early February, as part of an Association for Project Management Challenge, a group of Leidos Graduates launched a collection drive in Skypark, aimed at collecting unwanted sports clothing and equipment for Achieve More Scotland (AMS). AMS are a locally-based charity who provide children and young adults with sporting opportunities. This includes free holiday camps and weekly coaching sessions, in order to promote positive activity in the community and reduce crime and anti-social behaviour. Catherine Fevre (Graduate Project Manager) updated us on the outcome of their collection: “The collection drive went incredibly well thanks to the generosity of those working in Skypark. We had an initial target of collecting 50kg of sporting equipment but by the end of the period, we had collected over 80kg of donations. AMS were overwhelmed by the support and we are all very thankful to those who contributed with their donations.” Keep an eye out for future fundraisers from the group!
