11 months ago
Go-Ahead Ireland has once again partnered with Down Syndrome Ireland to support the launch of their annual fundraising campaign "Christmas Jumper Day 4 DSI".
Down Syndrome Ireland is extending an invitation to everyone to get involved this December by wearing their most festive Christmas Jumper and raising funds to provide support for children with Down syndrome and their families.
Go-Ahead Ireland has placed 'Christmas Jumper Day 4 DSI' ads on their fleet of buses that span the entire network and are promoting donations to be made wherever possible.
When is Christmas Jumper Day? You decide the time and place to take part - individually, at your workplace, in school or at home!
Lauren McCarthy, Fundraising Manager at Down Syndrome Ireland, said: "Down Syndrome Ireland are grateful for the support from Go-Ahead Ireland while launching our Christmas Jumper Campaign 2023, and we can’t wait to see DSI Christmas Jumper posters on 150 of their buses this December.
“Down Syndrome Ireland offers ‘all-through life’ supports in the areas of speech and language, early years, education and adult education and employment that enhances the lives of thousands of children and adults with Down syndrome across the country.
“Your support ensures that we can continue to provide these vital services.”
Dervla McKay, Managing Director, Go-Ahead Ireland, said: "We are thrilled to be participating in the launch and support of Down Syndrome Ireland's Christmas Jumper Day campaign once more, and we are looking forward to hosting our own Jumper Day on December 15th.
“I am sure you will see some of our driver colleagues in their most festive jumpers throughout our network on the day.
“We encourage organisations to participate and individuals to get involved whenever feasible to support such an important cause.”
