Intellect Ball

 

iT4Communities was on sparkling form at the recent Moulin Rouge themed Intellect Charity Ball. Held on Tuesday 25 November, the event raised £20,000 which will be split between the charity beneficiaries, iT4Communities and AbilityNet.

This was the eighth time the ball has been held and in total they have raised over £320,000. Each year different charities are chosen as the beneficiaries, and past recipients have included Barnardo's, Leukemia Research, NCH, the TreeHouse Trust, ACE Trust and The Starlight Children's Foundation.

The night included a host of entertainment such as magicians, cancan dancers and sideshows, as well as a tombola and auctions to help raise much needed funds to allow us to continue to our work.

Josh Hoole, iT4Communities Development Consultant, said "This was a fantastic opportunity for the IT industry to have a wonderful evening whilst raising money for good causes. We'd like to thank Intellect for supporting us and the funds raised will help us to add more charities to the 2300 we've already helped to improve their IT systems, so they can deliver support to even more disadvantaged people throughout the UK."
