"We are delighted to announce that we are renewing our partnership with The Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation for another year. This partnership is incredibly important to us, and we are proud to have raised €370,00 in just two years, providing much-needed support to many families across Ireland.
Reaching this crucial fundraising milestone would not have been possible without our customers, colleagues, and dealer partners and I would like to thank them for all their ongoing support.”
Ciara Foxton, Managing Director, Circle K Ireland. “We have great respect for the work carried out by The Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation, having supported them through our scratch card programme since 2009. We are proud to present this donation of €100,000 that will provide over 5,555 hours of invaluable care for children with severe to profound neurodevelopmental delay, and their families.
Through our scratch card programme, Ryanair has contributed over €2m to charities across Europe and we want to say a special thank you to all our customers who purchased a charity scratch card on board a Ryanair flight, helping both Jack and Jill and a range of other deserving charities across Europe. We look forward to continuing to support even more charities through our scratch card programme”
– Ryanair’s Director of Marketing, Dara Brady. Our good friends in Apache Pizza recently cooked up a storm when they cycled the equivalent distance of a trip to each of their restaurants across Ireland – a whopping 3,000 kilometers!
Staff from every store had a slice of the action raising a tasty sum to help support Jack and Jill families in their locality.
“The Glenveagh team are delighted to be participating in this fun and innovative challenge as part of our Building Lasting Communities initiative. Our volunteers have worked hard over the last few weeks encouraging donations and promoting the Staff Volunteer Day at Jack and Jill with the aim of driving footfall to the store. We are hoping to raise some much-needed funds for the vital service that Jack and Jill provides across communities in Ireland.”
