Cumnock Juniors Community Enterprise
Cunninghame Housing Association’s Board of Management awarded £500 to Cumnock Juniors Community Enterprise who, during Covid, supported their local community in times of need. The organisation voluntarily, made up food parcels and delivered to people who were vulnerable, immobile, or isolated.
The donation of £500 from Cunninghame Housing Association was a massive support to help aid the project and supported many families, particularly, a local primary school, who identified young people whose families would benefit from the food parcels.
“thank you to Cunninghame Housing Association for their kind donation, it is greatly appreciated and is a huge support to the work we do in the local community”.DEREK KING, Facility Manager, Cumnock Juniors Community Enterprise
