Tipp Woodie’s colleagues support charity

Tipperary Woodie’s colleagues recently celebrated raising over €16,500 for the 2023 Woodie’s Heroes Campaign in aid of ISPCC Childline, Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland, Down Syndrome Ireland and Make-A-Wish Ireland.

Woodie’s Clonmel and Woodie's Nenagh celebrated the wrap-up of the ninth annual Woodie’s Heroes campaign this week. Both stores raised a remarkable amount with Woodie's Clonmel raising €7,736and Woodie's Nenagh raising €9,250, with help from customers, colleagues and suppliers for four children’s charities. 100% of funds raised will be divided equally among ISPCC Childline, Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland, Down Syndrome Ireland, and Make-A-Wish Ireland.

Woodie’s Heroes was established in 2015 and has raised over €3 million for Irish children’s charities; this year’s fundraising is expected to see that figure grow closer to €3.5 million. Customers donated throughout the campaign by adding a donation in-store at the till, online at woodies.ie or by text. The teams at Woodie’s Clonmel and Woodie's Nenagh were overjoyed by the generosity and support shown to them during the campaign by their local community and wish to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of those that donated.

After four weeks of fundraising, it was a proud moment for the colleagues in-store when they presented the cheques. The money raised will make a meaningful difference to the children and families who are supported by these four amazing charities – ISPCC Childline, Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland, Down Syndrome Ireland, and Make-A-Wish Ireland.
