ISPCC gives huge 'thank you' to Mayo sports star

Childline by ISPCC has given a huge 'thank you' to Ohk Energy and their ambassador, rugby star Caelan Doris, who teamed up to support the vital work carried out by the charity with their phenomenal Power a Brighter Future initiative.

In just one month, the combined efforts of Ohk Energy and Childline Champion Caelan Doris, a native of Mayo, raised over €16,000, which will go directly to help the children and young people who need ISPCC’s vital services.

As part of the campaign, from August 6 to September 6, €50 from every Ohk Energy sale of solar PV systems and air-to-water heat pumps was donated to Childline.

Ohk Energy is a new group brand comprised of leading renewable energy providers NRG Panel and JFW Renewables.

John Church, CEO of ISPCC, said: “We are so grateful for the generous support from the team at Ohk Energy and our Childline Champion Caelan Doris. They are really helping us to offer a lifeline to all the children and young people who need us.

“The reality is that we could not continue to carry out the work we do if it wasn’t for these wonderful and essential collaborations with our partners. We truly appreciate the commitment from Ohk Energy and Caelan Doris to helping us make a real difference in the lives of those who need us.”

ISPCC needs to raise over 70% of its funding through donations each year to ensure it can be there to support children and young people 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year. It relies on the generosity of the public and is grateful for all support.
