Klearcom, a leading provider of global contact centre testing solutions, has announced that it has surpassed 4,000 selection box donations to Waterford Food Bank.
The Waterford-based company has donated selection boxes to Waterford Food Bank every year since 2022 and was on-site on the 18th of December to assist with packing efforts. All donations went directly to children in the local area through the charity's distribution partners.
Waterford Food Bank, a non funded non profit programme of Buíon Phort Láirge (formerly Waterford Area Partnership), was established in 2017 to eradicate food poverty for some of Waterford's most disadvantaged communities. The majority of food parcels are delivered to St. Vincent de Paul service users but those in need can also be referred through Money Advice and Budgeting Service (MABS) and Focus Ireland. All food parcels are given to families around Waterford City at no cost to the end user.
Klearcom has been a long-standing supporter of the charity, with staff regularly participating in volunteering activities and awareness campaigns, including organising and distributing food parcels at the packing centre.
Mark Rohan, Chief Operating Officer, Klearcom said: "At Klearcom, we believe it's now more important than ever to give back and support our local community. As Christmas can be a challenging time for many families, we chose selection boxes in the hope that they will spark joy for children and their loved ones in Waterford. I want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to our incredible staff for their generosity and commitment, and to Waterford Food Bank for their ongoing partnership and invaluable work."
Karen Glancy, Foodbank Administrator, Waterford Food Bank said: "While giving back is important all year around, charities are often overrun with people seeking help during the festive period. I have seen firsthand the difference a donation such as this makes to our local community. It's important to remember that even the smallest things can make a big impact and I want to thank Klearcom for their endless generosity in making this possible."
