The 2023 Woodie’s Heroes campaign launches this weekend, raising vital funds for four Irish charities, including Down Syndrome Irelnad. This is the 8th year of Woodie’s Heroes, which has raised €3 million for Irish children’s charities since 2016. This year, the Woodie’s Heroes campaign will run from 16th July to 12th August.
The charities are chosen by Woodie’s colleagues through a vote. This year’s beneficiaries are ISPCC Childline, Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland, Down Syndrome Ireland and Make-A-Wish Ireland.
We’d really appreciate it if members and supporters could encourage others to donate, and also get out to their local Woodie’s stores. Let the staff know you really appreciate their selecting Down Syndrome Ireland as a featured charity, take a picture and post it on social media (tagging Down Syndrome Ireland!) Funds will go towards our vital Early Years programmes.
