Kings Church Salford, a local church in the heart of Pendlebury, has benefitted from a donation of a brand-new hob and chest freezer thanks to online electricals retailer, AO.com.
The donation means that volunteers from the church can provide free hot nutritional meals alongside a warm space and activities for anyone in the local community that is in need, over the colder months and festive period.
Chris Case, Pastor at Kings Church Salford, said: “We are so grateful to AO for their kind donation to Kings Church as this has enabled our team to cook the meals we are offering to our community and help with freezing any leftovers so there is no food waste.
“Over the last couple of weeks, we have had members of the community come to the church who have said they have gone home and slept properly for the first time in weeks because they have had a hot meal and someone to talk to. So, this donation has been a huge blessing to both the church and the community.”
AO’s Brand and Marketing Director, Vicky Monk, said: “When we heard about the incredible work that the Kings Church Salford were doing over these colder months, we knew as a locally based business that we had to get involved. We’re all about making decisions that would make our mums proud and this is certainly one of them – a big thank you to everyone who helped make this donation happen.”
