A Game with a Purpose: MEMS Charity Football Match
MEMS Power Generation recently teamed up with Parker Steel for a spirited charity football match at Gillingham FC. The MEMS charity football match raised funds for the Take Heart Mercy Mission, a vital initiative that provides lifesaving medical care to children in Sri Lanka. This annual effort sends doctors, surgeons, and nurses from Evelina Children’s Hospital to perform surgeries and train local medical staff, creating a lasting impact that extends far beyond the operating room.
The match began with MEMS taking an early lead, showcasing great teamwork and determination. By halftime, they were ahead 3-1, but Parker Steel mounted a strong comeback in the second half, scoring three consecutive goals to lead 4-3. MEMS nearly equalised in the final moments with a spectacular volley, but an offside call sealed Parker Steel’s victory. Despite the competitive spirit on the pitch, the true winners were the children whose lives will benefit from the funds raised.
Raising Over £900 for a Lifesaving Cause
The MEMS charity football match raised more than £900 to support the Take Heart Mercy Mission. These funds will enable the mission to continue providing surgeries and vital training to improve healthcare access for children in need.
