MACE Sales Director Keith Crawford recently presented a cheque for a whopping €444,448 to Down Syndrome Ireland on behalf of Ireland’s nationwide network of MACE retailers, which closes out the official charity partnership relationship. As well as holding a number of fundraising events in their stores, over the lifetime of the Charity Partnership, monies were raised by MACE and its shoppers through collection boxes in stores and a donation on selected MACE Own Brand products.
Keith Crawford, MACE Sales Director said; “MACE is very proud of the funds we have raised over the lifetime of the Charity Partnership with Down Syndrome Ireland (DSI). The efforts of MACE retailers has helped fund a number of initiatives and programmes, such as providing meaningful opportunities to adults with Down syndrome to engage, socialise and look for employment opportunities.
“It has been thoroughly wonderful experience for MACE and our nationwide network of independent retailers to work so closely with a great organisation like Down Syndrome Ireland. ”
MACE retailers choose a new Charity Partner every two years and will be supporting Debra through to 2026.
