Irish Citylink and Gobus have turned a coach pink in support of the Irish Cancer Society’s Care For Your Pair Campaign this October! The Care For Your Pair campaign was created by the Irish Cancer Society to spread the word about the importance of breast health and raise funds for breast cancer patients and their families across Ireland this Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Irish Citylink and Gobus have livered a pink Care For Your Pair coach to support the Irish Cancer Society in creating awareness around the Care For Your Pair campaign, showing support for people impacted by breast cancer throughout the country. Each year, the public’s generosity helps the Irish Cancer Society provide vital care and support for families affected by breast cancer.
Irish Citylink and Gobus invite their passengers and the general public to donate to the Care For Your Pair fundraiser by scanning the QR codes across the Citylink and Gobus fleet of coaches. You can also donate via social media channels @citylinkireland and @gobus.ie or by visiting the fundraiser at citylink.ie or gobus.ie
Ciara Rosney, Head of Marketing and Public Relations at Citylink and Gobus says: “We are delighted to be able to create awareness and raise vital funds for the Irish Cancer Society’s Care For Your Pair campaign. In supporting such an important cause, we wanted to communicate the message to as many people as possible and therefore our fleet of coaches that transport thousands of passengers per week is the way to do so. With your much-appreciated support, we hope to raise as many vital funds as possible to support those affected by breast cancer.”
Frances Cahill, General Manager at Irish Citylink at Citylink and Gobus says: “On behalf of Irish Citylink and GoBus we are delighted to be contributing to this amazing organisation. You hope you will never need to call upon the service but if you do, you will see how much work they do in terms of the research, provision of vital information and more importantly the support they offer with counselling and transport during a very difficult time in a person’s life. Being involved in this campaign was extremely important for all the team in Irish Citylink and Gobus and hope that we can raise vital funds to help the Irish Cancer Society continue their already amazing work in some small way.”
