Together For Hospice, representing 24 hospices nationwide, is urging businesses and workers in Ireland to come together for just one hour to support their local hospice in April.
The ‘Your Finest Hour for Hospice’ campaign asks employers to give an hour of time to their employees – with workers then asked to donate one hour of their salary to hospice.
The campaign, led by Together For Hospice, ensures that every euro raised locally, stays locally, so by taking part, you are supporting your local hospice.
Your Finest Hour for Hospice
The concept behind the campaign is simple.
Together For Hospice is asking employers across Ireland to set aside an hour in the coming weeks to treat their employees to something special.
The hour could involve anything from gathering everyone together for their favourite takeaway, or a yoga session, to simply giving them an extra hour off to spend time with family and friends.
In exchange, Together For Hospice is asking workers to donate an hour of their salary to support the amazing work carried out every day at their local hospice.
All donations are welcome, with workers urged to donate whatever they feel they can afford.
The campaign officially runs through the month of April, but if that doesn’t suit, individuals and companies can take part at any time.
