Ireland rugby international and Mayo native Caelan Doris (pictured centre) as been announced as an ambassador Ohk Energy, who are set to fundraise for Childline by ISPCC
A company that will donate a portion of its sales to Childline has announced Ireland rugby international and Mayo native Caelan Doris as their ambassador.
To celebrate their partnership with Doris, Ohk Energy will donate €50 from the sale of each solar PV systems and air-to-water heat pump to Childline. The campaign will run until September 6.
Childline is a service and support system for all children up to 18, which offers a 24-hour support line for young people to reach out about any problems in confidence.
It is predominantly funded by donations and by teaming up with Ohk Energy and Caelan Doris, Childline will continue to be there for every child who connects with them by phone, webchat or through its digital platform www.childline.ie.
Doris, who was previously an ambassador for JFW Renewables prior to the establishment of the Ohk Energy group, has represented his country on 43 occasions and was a key part of Ireland’s Six Nations squad this year, captaining the team for his first time against Italy.
Speaking about becoming an ambassador for the Ohk Energy group, Doris said: “I’m delighted to be teaming up with Ohk Energy and for the new combined group to support Childline, a charity that I’ve been involved with for a number of years, and which is very close to my heart. This partnership is particularly special to me because Ohk Energy is not only dedicated to sustainability but also to supporting our community and ultimately, they’re both working towards making our world a better place for generations to come.”
Gearoid Whelan, CRO of Ohk Energy said it was ‘brilliant’ to have the Ireland and Leinster back row on board as a brand ambassador.
“Giving back to the communities in which we operate in is something that we pride ourselves on and Childline do some incredible work across this great island to support the children who are most vulnerable in our communities,” said Whelan.
John Church, CEO of ISPCC, said that the funds raised from this campaign will ‘help us to continue to be there for the most vulnerable children in our society’.
