We’re super excited to announce our Company of the Month for March 2022 is Mowgli Street Food!

Mowgli started supporting Candlelighters in early 2020 after the opening of their Leeds restaurant. They put in place a cause-related marketing agreement, encouraging customers to add a £1 donation to their bill in support of Candlelighters. This simple gesture has had a huge impact on Mowgli’s fundraising, and this month they reached the incredible milestone of over £20,000 raised!

Our Corporate Partnerships Executive Iain said, ‘We are so grateful for the support of Mowgli and their customers; to reach over £20,000 in just over two years is really a brilliant achievement and will make such a difference to our work. It’s an absolute pleasure to work with such an enthusiastic and friendly team too, thank you Mowgli!’.

We were thrilled to welcome some of the team to The Square to commemorate their fantastic achievement!
