Sponsorship 2025
The Promotions Committee is made up of members of our community, all volunteers of Cairde Credit Union Ltd and they come from Tallow, Lismore, Cappoquin, Dungarvan and Kilmacthomas.
Since January 2023, our common bond increased to include Tallow, Lismore and Cappoquin and beyond Kilmacthomas. As the area and number of clubs, groups and organisations have increased, we have now set our criteria to apply for Sponsorship from our Community Fund.
Going forward, all applications under €500 will be reviewed and agreed at a bi-monthly .
Promotions Committee Meeting - the schedule of these meetings are as follows:
Eligibility and Assessment
To make the review of all applications fair and equal, we have set out guidelines for the process:
Eligibility Criteria
Purpose: Ensure your application aligns with specific community goals e.g., is it for education, sporting involvement
Community Impact: Your projects/fundraising should demonstrate a clear, positive impact on the community. Please outline how our contribution will help.
Applicant Status: Open to groups, clubs, and organisations within our common bond area.
Exclusions: Political, for-profit ventures, if you have received funding in the last 12 months.
Assessment
Transparency: The Promotions Committee will review all applications and will assess each application on it’s own merits. Each application must be from within our common bond, have not received funding from us in the last 12 months, and can demonstrate how the community/club/group/organisation benefitted from our donations.
Panel Composition: Our Promotions and Community Cash Committee are members of Cairde Credit Union Ltd, and are volunteers on these committees. They reside in Tallow, Lismore, Cappoquin, Dungarvan and Kilmacthomas and come from a diverse background. We value their views and opinions and appreciate their time.
