Ledyard Asset: Lending a helping hand around the world

Ledyard Asset has a deep-rooted sense of responsibility that it should help those less fortunate and actively lend assistance at every appropriate opportunity to do so. Contributing to local communities through charitable donations or other social initiatives is just part of the work carried out by the Ledyard Asset Company management and staffs.

World Health Organization Donation.

Established in 1971, the Cyprus Anti-Cancer Society is a registered Charity Organisation that cares for people with cancer, supports patients' families and caregivers and also informs the wider public about cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment and relief.

Supporting Local Community

The Ledyard Asset limited team made some kids smile and helped them celebrate the 2020 festive season in the best way possible. Toys and presents were donated to various charitable organizations and healthcare facilities. These were the children’s ward of Larnaca General Hospital, the Convent of Sisters of St. Joseph of the Apparition, the Aradippou Mental Health Support Association and the Larnaca District Volunteerism Coordinating Council.

Foundations

Sophia Foundation for Children

In line with its commitment to social responsibility and supporting charitable causes, Ledyard Asset donated a significant amount to the Sophia Foundation for Children during a fundraising event and gala dinner held at the Presidential Palace in Nicosia. Ledyard Assets management team was there to hand the donation to representatives of the Foundation.The Foundation was established in 2008 by Cypriot volunteers and aims to contribute to the fight against poverty. It has focused on improving the nutrition, education, and medical care of children in Kenya. The Sophia Foundation also uses sponsorship money to support its work running the Makarios Children’s Home for orphans, which helps to break the cycle of poverty amongst some of the poorest children.

The Rotary Club

With more than 34,000 clubs around the world, its staggering 1.2 million members work tirelessly to combat hunger, provide clean water, eradicate polio, improve health and sanitation, and even support education and job training. For such a distinguished organization it was a clear choice for Ledyard Asset to make a donation to help underprivileged people in the local community of Larnaca, Cyprus; where the Ledyard Asset Europe Ltd’s headquarters are located.

In honor of our generous donation a ceremony was held with the participation of the Cypriot minister for Communications and Works, Mr Tasos Mitsopoulos.

UNICEF

Ledyard Asset continues to reinforce the work done by leading international charitable organizations with its latest donation to UNICEF.
UNICEF is known all over the world for their work in the areas of:

Child survival and development
Basic education and gender equality
Children and HIV/AIDS
Child protection

The entire Ledyard Asset team unanimously believe that this was a worthy organization to which to lend our financial support.

SOS Children's Villages
