Viva Glam! M.A.C Cosmetics volunteers support Lunch Positive

M.A.C Cosmetics have a fund which supports HIV organisations.

This fund has helped Lunch Positive over the current year.

Since January a team of M.A.C staff have also helped Lunch Positive by volunteering regularly for one lunch club session each month. M.A.C volunteers are involved in every aspect of volunteering and travel far and wide throughout the South-East to get to Lunch Positive.

On Friday, April 25 the entire Lunch Positive team took part in food safety training and M.A.C volunteers stood in to ensure the lunch session could go ahead. A team of five prepared and cooked a fantastic meal from scratch which was shared by 55 service users and volunteers.

Gary Pargeter, Volunteer Project Manager: “It’s always a huge pleasure to have M.A.C volunteers with us. They have a sincere interest in what we do and go to huge lengths to help the session run smoothly. I know that many of our service users really enjoy meeting and talking with them. Our extra special thanks for their help last week when Sat, Emma, Emma, Rups and Suzie covered our kitchen and enabled our volunteers to attend training. They cooked a great meal, and there were loads of laughs in the kitchen! All proceeds of sales from M.A.C Viv Glam Lipstick and Lipgloss are donated to the AIDS Fund. I know from talking to the M.A.C Team that they go to huge lengths to support these sales in their paid work. It was great to hear from them how much it means to see where the funds raised are spent, and how much difference it makes to people with HIV.”
