Mackie’s donates to Aberdeenshire charity
ICE CREAM and confectionery company Mackie’s of Scotland has donated £50,000 to the Aberdeen Performing Arts charitable organisation (APA).
Mackie’s has agreed to donate £20,000 and will add a further £10,000 over the next three years to the organisation behind the refurbishment of the Aberdeen Music Hall.
Funding provided by Mackie’s will be used in the venue’s creative learning hub to broaden access to the arts and support musicians in the city.
Karin Hayhow, Mackie’s marketing director said: “We’re all looking forward to a visit to The Music Hall when it reopens after such an ambitious renovation project.
“The new performance and educational opportunities this will bring is exciting for Aberdeen.
“We now welcome this chance for us give something back to our local community.
“We’re keen to do our bit to help ensure that the experience of live art in the city thrives.”
