GoodBox Co-Founder & Managing Director Francesca Hodgson, says: “As an increasing number of donors don’t carry cash, a contactless donation point is an essential part of any modern fundraising campaign.”

Andrea Wareham, Chief People Officer at Pret A Manger, comments: “For the last 25 years, The Pret Foundation has been dedicated to helping those experiencing homelessness up and down the country.”

“This year more than ever, they need our help and that is why we chose to partner with GoodBox to ensure our customers have every opportunity to continue their generous donations by utilising the impressive GoodBox contactless devices in our stores.”
