Speaking at the launch, Fergal Harrington, Group Brand Development Manager, The Maxol Group commented, "Maxol is proud to work with the Make-A-Wish Foundation as the company's ongoing charity partner for 2015. To date we are delighted to say we have raised an incredible €160,000 for the foundation. The generosity of our customers is always phenomenal and ‘Wash For Wishes’ continues to be one of our key campaigns for the charity. We want to stress that every donation made to the Make-A-Wish Foundation goes towards granting the wish of a child in Ireland with a life-threatening medical condition."
