Mental illness charity praises Appco Group Support's efforts

A leading mental illness charity in Australia has praised the efforts of Appco Group Support, which have proved 'instrumental' to its success over the past one year.

The not for profit organisation, which supports individuals and families affected by mental illness, showed its appreciation to Appco and one of its affiliated Marketing Companies by holding a special brunch on April 15. In the last 12 months, the company has become involved with the regular giving campaign run by this charity and consequently the number of donors has increased from under 1,000 to approximately 6,500.

Says a representative of the charity organisation, “Appco Group has been instrumental in our success over the past 12 months. The organisation can now offer scholarships and conduct research and evaluation. There is also a new initiative set-up - an early intervention program that aims to raise awareness and reduce stigma around mental illness...During our time on the campaign we have made a significant impact by educating the public on mental health, lifting some of the stigma associated with mental health in Australia, and raising important funds to aid research and new programs”.

Appco Group UK also does commendable work to promote activities done by many such charity organisations.
