Gaisce – The President’s Award is proud to partner with An Post, to celebrate 40 years of the President’s Award with a special commemorative postmark. From May 15th to May 25th, the Gaisce 40 postmark will appear on everyone in all standard letters processed by An Post.
Gaisce has enjoyed a long-standing relationship with An Post. Previously, An Post marked our 25th anniversary with a special postage stamp and also collaborated with us on the Bulbs for Bees challenge in 2021.
We marked the launch of the Gaisce 40 postmark, along with Be The Arrow – Gaisce’s 40th Anniversary Challenge at an event held at An Post in the Exo building recently with Anna McHugh, Head of Corporate Communications at An Post; Gaisce CEO Avril Ryan and Áine Kerr, Chairperson of Gaisce.
Our special anniversary challenge, Be the Arrow, is running throughout May, with all participants receiving a commemorative digital certificate from the President of Ireland. Register for free at www.bethearrow.ie
Describing the partnership, Anna McHugh said:
“An Post is delighted to support Gaisce with this special postmark which tells people across Ireland and the world of Gaisce’s 40th anniversary, bringing back happy memories to former Gaisce participants and encouraging more people to get involved this year.
“Our work groups and families all around the country will be getting involved with Be The Arrow. It’s a great opportunity to take practical action for the common good in our communities and it perfectly reflects our ‘Making Better Happen’ campaign, showing how An Post makes a difference to Irish life. We wish Gaisce every success in the next 40 years too.”
A big thank you to An Post for their ongoing support of Gaisce through this wonderful collaboration.
