BMF's Exceptional Year!

4th January 2026

Happy New Year!

We begin 2026 and look back on 2025 with appreciation to all those who support Kisima in different ways.

Special thanks go to the Builders Merchants Federation - BMF who concluded an exceptional fundraising year at their Members' Conference and Awards Dinner in September. The event included a live auction and a raffle and raised £22,500, bringing the total amount raised in 2025 to £91,000. As one of the company's two charity partners, TEFT/Kisima therefore received a phenomenal £45,500 over the course of the year. More good news is that the BMF will continue this fundraising partnership in 2026. They also sponsor a student and two of their staff members will be here as volunteers next month.

BMF CEO, John Newcomb, said, "Our goal is to unite BMF members and industry partners to raise awareness and funds for worthy causes, making a tangible difference in our communities and beyond."

We testify that they are indeed doing that!
