Our WholeHearted £1500 monthly donation to local good causes.

Fife Creamery wants to give back to local communities throughout the country. And to do this, we will be donating £1500 every month by selecting, at random, one good cause nominated by one of our customers. To borrow from elsewhere, ‘it could be you!’

We will be totally guided by you on how you would like to utilise this opportunity. You can decide yourself to nominate a local cause already close to your heart that you would like us to support.
We would welcome your nomination.
Or you can open the nominations up to your own customers and/or staff to get them involved in this great community inspired opportunity. We are sure your own customers would be delighted to be given this opportunity to support local and deserving causes.
If you decide to involve your regular and loyal customers and invite them to nominate, then we will keep the process very simple and use Social Media as the main point of involvement and participation. Hopefully, you can use your own Social Media presence to spread the word and encourage your followers to ‘get involved’.
We believe this will encourage maximum engagement and hopefully nominations and of course your own Business’s involvement within the community, while minimizing any disruption to your day to day business!
We will provide you with (if you want it) some printed and digital material to help promote this worthy initiative and all we ask is that you prominently display it/share it for maximum exposure and engagement.

All the groups and causes we're proud to support
