Nestlé Ireland staff have raised €582,000 for the Jack & Jill charity since 2010, it was revealed today. The announcement came as Nestlé Ireland renewed its partnership with the Jack & Jill Children’s Foundation as their ‘Charity of the Year’ for 2013.
Recent initiatives undertaken by Nestlé Ireland include the development of a national marketing campaign for the charity with the support of their supplier agencies, which resulted in an additional €450,000 being raised for the charity last year.
With less than 20% of its €2.7 million annual budget coming from the State, the Jack & Jill Foundation relies heavily on corporate fundraisers. Jack & Jill provide intensive nursing care in the home, funding and support to families of children under 4yrs with severe development delay as a result of brain damage who need 24 hour care.Pictured at the announcement is Ádraí O’Brien, Nestlé Ireland, Rebekah Verling (5) Baldonnel, Dublin 22, Oisín Ó’Luasa (8) Kill, Co Kildare and Sinead Duffin, Nestlé Ireland.
