Singapore - Working together with the Boys Brigade Sharity Gift Box (BBSGB), close to 50 Ernst & Young employees raised a record total of over S$44,500 for charity.

In celebration of the holiday season, the Ernst & Young staff spent the past few weeks raising money, sourcing and wrapping up gifts for 600 elderly, children and family beneficiaries, making their wishes this Christmas come true.

According to Grahame Wright, a partner leading the Ernst & Young Corporate Volunteerism committee, “We are delighted that our people have contributed a record level of funds for BBSGB 2008. But what really matters is that this will enable us to go a longer way in fulfilling the wishes of more people in the community.”
