Case Study
MainStreet USA, a travel operator specialising in travel to and around the USA has supported the Brooke for over two years. Fundraising within MainStreet USA takes places with a number of different initiatives from dress down days, to raffles and encouraging the staff to hold their own events.
We are of course, delighted that MainStreet USA continues to support us and would like to thank all staff involved for making a real difference.
Jan Eddleston, the Director of MainStreet USA had this to say about the Brooke;
“Mainstreet USA has been a very successful tour operator for the last eighteen years and as a great believer in "giving something back" I feel very strongly about lending support to a worthwhile charity. In the past I would choose a charity for a twelve month basis however I really wanted to "adopt" a charity for the long term but which to choose?
By chance I saw a television programme detailing the work of the Brooke, the content was extremely moving detailing the plight of the working horses and donkeys in Cairo living in the most abject poverty, but it was also extremely uplifting showing the dedication of the Brooke vets and staff working tirelessly to improve the standard of living for these animals.
This is how my relationship with the Brooke began; it is a fantastic charity, who really do make a difference, not only to the animals they treat but also with the owners by re-educating them with better animal husbandry as much of the cruelty they inflict is borne out of ignorance. Supporting the Brooke is an absolute pleasure - we can choose a project and watch its progress. This year we focused our efforts towards helping the brick kiln donkeys whose lives will improve with the Brooke's intervention and help. Over 800,000 horses’ donkeys and mules are reached every year by the Brooke so MainStreet USA is extremely proud to be associated with this fantastic charity, to any company thinking of supporting a worthwhile charity look no further pick up the phone and get involved today!
