CHARITY
Some of the projects we are proud to work with

5K Liffey Loop Aware Ireland

Aware was founded by a team of volunteers who had their own personal experience with mental health disorders and then decided to promote and raise awareness about mental health and provide support for those facing mental health issues.

Everyone has the opportunity to contribute to the agency’s initiatives and contribute to the charity events for which Aware encourages companies throughout Ireland to show their support at fundraising events which also provides the opportunity to connect with other supporting companies who have come together to support an amazing cause.

 

Every single event is crucial to maintain the company’s free mental health support services and to enable them continue educating the public on mental health.

In March McKenna & Co took part in the 5K Liffey Loop to show our support for Aware Ireland.

We recognise that you never know who could be suffering in silence from mental health issues and we wanted to help raise as much awareness of the support Aware could provide to one of those people.

The louder the voice, the larger the reach and the more people will hear it and we are proud that we could be one of those voices

Helping our clients and others

The foundation of McKenna and Co is built on helping people, wherever and however we can. This ethos extends past our own clients as not everyone who requires help necessarily needs legal assistance, and not everyone can afford the help they require.

Every few months we participate in a fund-raising charity run: to date we’ve done the Grant Thornton Night Run and most recently, the Simon Homeless 8k.

This is all to say: we care about our clients and about helping others. For us as a firm, this means delivering a top-quality legal service. At McKenna and Co, you are our client, and not a number/transaction.

Pride Run

This year the team took part in the Pride Run to show our support for the LGBTQ+ community. Our ethos at McKenna & Co is based on equality and inclusivity and so we were proud to be putting on our running shoes. Despite terrible weather conditions, the team ploughed on in high spirits with everyone crossing the finishing line.

Focus Ireland

McKenna & Co have partnered with Focus Ireland since 2021 and each year the team participates in their annual shine a light night. This night highlights the struggles and hardship facing the homeless in Ireland as we experience a night sleeping on the streets. Fighting to eradicate homelessness is a cause very close to our heart and we are proud to partner with such an amazing Charity who are the saving grace for so many people throughout Ireland. Through generous donations from our clients, family and friends, we have been able to raise over €10,000.00 every year for the last 3 years
