At McCain, we believe every family should be able to enjoy mealtimes together, taking time for the little moments that matter. For some families, this isn't always possible. That's why McCain is supporting Family Fund to help them reach their goal of providing 150,000 grants and services to UK families with disabled and seriously ill children.
McCain will donate £1m to Family Fund Trust by 2023, and have committed to donate £400k in 2021, and £300k in 2022 & 2023.
McCain's donation will help Family Fund to achieve its goal of providing 150,000 grants and services to UK families.
