The Jack and Jill Children's Foundation has opened a new charity boutique at 44/45 Dublin Street Monaghan selling a fantastic selection of pre-loved clothes, accessories, toys, books, LEGO and household items. The newly opened boutique is raising much-needed funds to help support 3 children currently under Jack and Jill's care across Co Monaghan. The charity boutique will open Tuesday to Saturday from 10.00am to 5.30pm and is currently recruiting volunteers who can spare a few hours a week to make a real difference to local families.
Funds raised through sales in the new Jack and Jill charity boutique go to provide in-home nursing care and respite support to local families caring for children, up to the age of six, with severe learning disability associated with complex medical needs. The Jack and Jill Children's Foundation currently supports 3 local families, and since the service began in 1997, they have provided much-needed care for 38 families across Co Monaghan. Speaking to Northern Sound, Area Manager Julie Mooney - O'Shea praised the work carried out by the foundation.
"We are delighted to have opened in our lovely new premises on Dublin Street," she explained. "We have already received great support, with some fabulous new items donated to us which are ready to purchase. I am really looking forward to managing this beautiful new charity boutique and working with our wonderful volunteers to make this a great place to shop for our customers."
