Nominated Charities of the Year
At Verus, we believe that community is the bedrock on which we are formed. We are proud to be able to support the local community along with numerous national and international charitable foundations.
We’re passionate about giving back and working with the community. As part of this, we are dedicated to supporting local sports teams through sponsorships. We’re proud to work with such fundamental pillars of the community in and around Sligo.
We strive to give back beyond Sligo too. Each year, we choose two foundations to be our nominated Charities of the Year. As corporate sponsors, we organize numerous fundraising activities throughout the year along with support through donations.

2000km Walkathon
We were delighted to have raised a total of €1,500 in our first fundraiser of 2021 for Verus’ nominated Charities of the Year.
Throughout the month of February, participating Verus employees pledged to complete 2000km in aid of Treetops Hospice UK and North West Hospice.
A special thank you to everyone who supported our initiative and donated to our GoFundMe page. As always, we were amazed by the generosity shown and completely smashed our fundraising target 🥳
