About
On a Global scale we support many organisations most notably we are part of the Trócaire Ambassadors’ Programme. The aim of the Ambassadors’ Programme is to support Trócaires work over the next 5 years to help 2.5 million women and men across Asia, Africa and Latin America to earn a sustainable living.
By ensuring families have the means to earn a sustainable living, Trócaire can help them to overcome poverty, to improve the health and the education of their children and to build a better future.
Trócaire has over 40 years of groundbreaking work with the poorest and most vulnerable people in the developing world. Trócaire tackles the root causes of poverty, addressing issues such as of food security, human rights, gender equality and HIV.
It works with local partner organisations that understand the challenges faced by communities in the hardest hit regions of the world. And it strives to educate and inform the Irish public on issues of global justice.
Shay Murtagh Precast is committed to supporting this initiative for the next five years. For more information about Trócaire and its important work please visit www.trocaire.org
Locally, we support local fundraisers for national charities, but notably we are a continual support to St Vincent De Paul in our region. This Society of Saint Vincent de Paul exists to fight poverty, work for social justice and the creation of a more just, caring nation. They offer a wide range of practical services to support locally people in need. The staff in 2013 came together and raised €3500 for the charity, by linedancing, in our factory. “Hardhats instead of Stetsons” was born and they set a great challenge which can be viewed here.
