There has been a campaign running in recent months by dairy farmers throughout the country, with the intention of making a meaningful contribution to those suffering with famine in Yemen. The hope was that each dairy farmer would contribute €10 to the cause and that the monies raised would be channelled through ICOS and the Irish Red Cross direct to those in need.

The Committee of Management is pleased to announce that it decided to make this contribution on behalf of all our milk suppliers and consequently has donated €3,360 to the fundraising efforts.
