We are delighted to partner with Croi Heart & Stroke Charity as our charity of the year for 2018, with a programme of on-going activities ranging from marathons to inhouse entertainment, all of which are designed to work with staff, customers and local communities. The partnership will raise much needed funds for the West of Ireland charity.
The relationship officially began appropriately at the launch of the valentine’s week-long promotion at the Harbour Hotel’s bar and restaurant Dillisk on the Docks “Celebration of the Heart”.
During the weeklong love-in at Dillisk on the Docks guests can enjoy a scrumptious three course meal with their delicious new Love Potion cocktail with proceeds from each meal going to Croi Heart & Stroke Charity.
“There is no better way to enjoy Valentine’s than enjoying delicious food and drinks with a loved one while having a feel-good experience knowing you are supporting a charity,” said Head Chef at Harbour Hotel Patrick Anslow. “We are thrilled to have joined with Croi and we look forward to rolling out some fun and exciting events throughout the year.”
The significant new partnership comes at a time when charities are experiencing challenging times for fundraising, despite signs of moderate economic growth. Now more than ever, charities are recognising the value of corporate partnerships can bring – both to raise awareness of their cause and to bring in much needed funds.
Joe Kavanagh, Corporate Relations at Croi Heart & Stroke Charity said at the launch; “Partnering with Harbour Hotel, Stephen, Darragh and the team at Harbour Hotel offers fantastic opportunities for Croi. The funds will make a huge difference to so many people. They have some great fundraising ideas and we look forward to the year ahead with them”.
Stephen O Connor General Manager at Harbour Hotel said; “We know our collaboration with Croi with raise much-needed funds but also engage with new audiences, provide opportunities for our customers to support Croi in the long term and help them deliver the support they are providing to so many families. We really want to build on the partnership during the year and help Croi with their on-going efforts. It is a great partnership and we are overjoyed to have the opportunity to support them”.
