Woodies stores in Limerick have achieved a remarkable milestone, raising over €9,000 as part of their nationwide charity campaign. The initiative, which aimed to support both local and national causes, saw enthusiastic participation from staff and customers alike, highlighting the power of community spirit.
The campaign was part of Woodies’ annual fundraising drive, which brings together employees and shoppers to support charities that make a difference in people’s lives. This year, funds will be distributed among various beneficiaries, including children’s healthcare programs, mental health initiatives, and support services for families in need.
Store manager Michael Ryan expressed his gratitude to the Limerick community for their generosity. “We are overwhelmed by the kindness and support we’ve received. Every donation, big or small, contributes to making a significant impact for the people who need it most,” he said.
Fundraising activities included bake sales, raffles, and community engagement events, all of which drew considerable attention and participation. Local schools and volunteer groups also joined the effort, further amplifying the impact of the campaign.
