Proud to Partner with Coles Group, Top Corporate Giver 💫 We’re thrilled to announce that Coles has been recognised as one of Australia’s top corporate givers in the 2024 GivingLarge Report. Their $178 million contribution (9.9% of pre-tax profit) has significantly impacted food rescue, health, education, and disaster relief. At Fitted for Work, we’re proud of our partnership with Coles and grateful for their support in empowering women and strengthening our community. Thank you, Coles, for your generosity and leadership.
