CV-Library raises nearly £4k in memory of former colleague
CV-Library, the UK’s leading independent job board, headquartered in Fleet, Hampshire, has raised £3,900 for Thrombosis UK, in its recent charity raffle.
The raffle took place in memory of Sam Chapman from the company’s sales team, who sadly passed away at work last summer. Sam suffered from a pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which caused venous thromboembolism (VTE).
The company secured hundreds of prize donations from its generous staff, local businesses, and its own clients and partners. These included items such as champagne, a Fortnum and Mason hamper, music event tickets, restaurant vouchers, experience days, an iPad, speakers and more.
The raffle was organised by Sam’s daughter, Abi Chapman, who works within CV-Library’s marketing department. £3,050 was raised through raffle ticket purchases alone, with founder and MD Lee Biggins contributing a further £850 from the business.
