Charity 25 Raises €5975!
Irish registered charity, Charity 25 that is responsible for raising money for 25 Irish national charities via its €2WILLDO text campaign are delighted to announce that between the months of August to October 2011, have managed to raise €5975. This means that each of their charity members will each receive €239.
Since the launch of their €2WILLDO campaign back in May 2011 where Charity 25 announced Mrs Brown as their patron, they have managed to raise €9625.00 that has been equally distributed between their 25 Irish charity members.
