"We've been working with Together Academy on a weekly basis for this year and I'm very happy to share this message from Therese Coveney from the Together Academy.
A special thanks to all the TYs who've helped out so far in the cafe and in playing their part in helping making these beautiful hampers:
This year we are asking our supporters to buy social and buy with purpose when considering Christmas gifting. If you have not already purchased your corporate Christmas gifts we would love to consider our hampers.
As you know last Christmas Together Academy launched our first social enterprise project. We sold over 500 luxury hampers and in the process helped facilitate a meaningful work experience for our students and fund a teacher.
Back by popular demand, we are delighted to share that our Together @ Christmas Hampers are *officially* available for purchase here https://togetheracademy.ie/together-at-christmas-hamper/
Our students and staff have been working hard to re-design, produce and create a new box of joy that families across Ireland can open over the holiday season.
How can I order this year's hamper?
We are delighted to offer seamless ordering through our website. Just click here to order your hamper with delivery and collection options. Online ordering is available for quantities of 1-10 hampers.
Can I order more than 10 hampers?
We would be delighted to facilitate bulk and corporate orders. If you would like to order 10+ hampers for delivery or collection, please email info@togetheracademy.ie. Additionally, if you would like to pay via invoice, please email us to complete your order.
Where do you deliver?
We are thrilled to be able to offer nationwide delivery this year thanks to our courier partners. Delivery is available for a flat rate of €6.00.
What's in this year's hampers?
Each hamper costs €120 and will be put together individually. They include a range of Together Academy products, wine, treats, calendar and Dunnes stores simply better range food.
Need more convincing? We have attached a fantastic presentation of what's included in our hampers, and how your support helps provide meaningful employment for our students.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions, concerns or queries related to hamper orders. We look forward to celebrating Christmas with you this year- one box of joy at a time!
With warm regards,
Therese"
