Bank of Ireland has promised to make a €1 million donation to various charities in order to address the growing cost of living crisis.
The first part of this funding was already allocated back in January, with €500,000 fast-tracked towards organisations working with vulnerable people in Ireland. The remaining half of the €1 million sum will be issued to around 50 non-profit organisations in grants of up to €10,000.
The bank intends to help at risk groups, including struggling families and older people, through the initiative. The Hill Street Family Resource Centre will introduce family workshops at their centre thanks to the cash boost.
