Good Grub
We donated €20,000 to enable the provision of food packages to Good Grub. Good Grub is a not-for-profit initiative delivering over 75,000 nutritious fruit & veg parcels directly to the families of DEIS school children around Ireland. DEIS is a national programme that addresses the needs of children and young adults in disadvantaged communities.
A REAL NEED – Although the government, with the support of their existing DEIS school lunch suppliers will for the duration of the Covid-19 crisis, provide basic weekly family food packs to the value of €10, more has to be done. The ‘Good Grub’ team spotted the need to supplement these deliveries with a vital, fresh fruit & veg parcel.
Because of the massive challenge facing us all in stopping the spread of Covid-19 and the likelihood that we will be fighting this pandemic for some time to come, it is imperative that we continue to support these families in desperate need. Every euro donated by you goes directly to making this happen.
