The Jack & Jill Children’s Foundation is the first children’s charity in Ireland to launch a free iOS app (available on iTunes). The app allows individuals and businesses to donate mobile phones or toner cartridges or to order new toner cartridges from Jack & Jill direct.
Jack & Jill’s recycling programme raises much-needed funds to provide home nursing care and respite for children nationwide with brain damage who suffer from severe intellectual and physical developmental delay. The app was created by Vantage Resources.
Jonathan Irwin, CEO and Founder of Jack & Jill, said, “This new app gives Jack & Jill yet another avenue to the individuals and the businesses who want to help Jack & Jill while at the same time save money for their businesses.”
Today the charity receives only 19% of its funding from the State and it has launched an SOS (Save our Service) campaign to raise the additional €750,000 funding it requires to keep the service going into 2011 and beyond.
