UBER since their arrival in Ireland has had a very positive impact on business in Limerick City where  over 200 staff  are based in their fantastic ultra modern offices  at the junction of Thomas Street and Catherine Street  .

They have also been making a positive impact on others as well, through their very innovative and energetic staff initiated charity fundraising events . Cliona’s Foundation were delighted to be selected as the beneficiary in September and really enjoyed the opportunity to liaise with them over a number of weeks. Their main fundraiser saw members of staff cycle 200 km on a spinning bike which was based in the office for a day in the last week of September.

 

Staff battled against each other to see the distance they could manage in a specific period of time while attracting sponsorship for their individual achievements.  Their efforts generated a whopping €1,176.10 which we were delighted to be presented with by Megan Mc Namara and her colleagues.

But not satisfied with just getting on their bikes 23 staff also registered to be part of the Cliona’s Foundation Purple Platoon in Adare to Survive on the 24th September. Their presence hugely enhanced the Purple Wave on the day and helped all of our crew have a fantastic albeit dirty day out

To see what a great day out they had take a look at the super video piece here
