Bunclody Day Care services received a cash injection of €500 recently thanks to Aldi Bunclody.

The staff at Aldi Bunclody presented the day care service with a grant of €500 in recognitio­n of its tremendous work within the local community and to help support its services. The €500 grant was presented to Mairead Keogh, Volunteer, Bunclody Day Care Services, by Michael Cloke, Aldi’s Bunclody store Charity Champion.

Finbar McCarthy, Group Buying Director, Aldi Ireland, said: ‘We are delighted our Bunclody store employees have chosen to support Bunclody Day Care Services, as they play a pivotal role in bettering the local community as a whole. The social outlet Bunclody Day Care Services provides for older people is vital in helping combat loneliness. Supporting the local communitie­s our stores serve is something that we truly believe in and we are proud to be contributi­ng to the important work done by charities and not-for–profit organisati­ons across County Wexford through our community support fund.’

Aldi’s community support fund programme provides each Aldi employee with the opportunit­y to nominate a charity, community group or not-for-profit organisati­on within their local community for support. Nominated charities are assessed according to a defined selection criteria, with the organisati­on deemed the most worthwhile receiving a €500 donation from Aldi.
