Where do the funds go?

Juniors for Juniors is a foundation that raise funds and directly give it to the Children’s Ward at University Hospital Waterford. When a child is admitted as a patient to hospital it is very stressful for all involved. The parents may have never put their child into another bed or been away from them at night. The child will need to feel as comfortable and safe as possible under the circumstances. Therefore, our main goal is to buy brand new comfortable and modern cots and beds for the children to give them a little bit of home from home comfort during their hospital stay
