The 5th annual Lindt Make Easter Sweet for Temple Street campaign is returning to shopping centres across Ireland. The Gold Bunny Road Show will raise much needed funds for Temple Street Children’s University Hospital.
Lindt has donated thousands of Lindt 10g Gold Bunnies which will be given away at the Lindt Gold Bunny Road Shows with a minimum donation of €1. Every cent donated will go to Temple Street. Fund raising will kick off with some ‘bunny fun’ at Dundrum Town Centre on March 24th & 25th. The Gold Bunny Road Show will then move onto Blanchardstown S.C on March 31st, Pavillions S.C. Swords April 1st, Liffey Valley S.C. April 5th, Mahon Point Cork April 6th and Douglas Court Cork April 7th.
This year, the campaign will focus on raising funds for Patient Monitoring Units specifically for the Intensive Care Unit at Temple Street Children’s University Hospital. This life saving equipment is used to monitor the oxygen levels and other vital statistics in babies and young children.
This year an exciting addition has been made to the Lindt Make Easter Sweet for Temple Street campaign. Gold plated Lindt Bunnies have been autographed by Irish and international celebrities. They will be auctioned on the Lindt Chocolate Ireland Facebook page from Monday March 5th to Tuesday April 9th. If you would like to bid on a signed Lindt Gold Bunny, visit www.facebook.com/lindtchocolateireland, ‘like’ the Lindt Chocolate Ireland Facebook page and make your bid. Every successful bid will not only win their signed bunny but will receive a Lindt Gold Bunny hamper worth €100.
Those who have signed the porcelain Lindt Gold Bunnies so far include Amy Huberman, Brian O’Driscoll, Colin Farrell, Jedward, JLS, Katie Taylor, Michael Bublé, One Direction, Robbie Keane, Roger Federer – Lindt World Brand Ambassador, Saoirse Ronan, Snow Patrol, Westlife, X Factor Judges and The Voice of Ireland Judges and presenter.
In the four years since the Lindt Make Easter Sweet for Temple Street campaign began, over a quarter of a million euro has been raised for Temple Street by Lindt. It is hoped with addition of the signed Lindt Gold Bunnies, that this year will raise even more funds and awareness will be raised for this worthy cause.
