In a little over three weeks our video challengers raised over €13,000, all of which will be matched by the Z Zurich Foundation and split equally amongst our charity partners Alone, The Alzheimer Society of Ireland, and Windmill.
All our charity partners said that the money raised by Zurich employees and matched by the Z Zurich Foundation, will make a huge difference to the work and services they provide.
Donations can still be made here and this link will remain active for future fundraising initiatives.
In addition to the funds raised through the video challenges, the Z Zurich Foundation has, in addition to matching the fundraising total, made a substantial donation to our charity partners on our behalf. Recognising the impact that the reduction in regular fundraising activity is having on their ability to maintain their services they have donated €25,000 to the Alzheimer Society of Ireland, and €15,000 each to Alone and Windmill. This money will make a huge difference to these charities and will allow them to continue to deliver their vital services at this time.
