Lead Sponsor

Amazon Web Services

We were delighted to partner with AWS InCommunities as we delivered Urban Forests through the 2023/24 planting season.

AWS were the Lead Sponsor for this wonderful forest developed at St Philip the Apostle JNS, bringing biodiversity and nature into this wonderful school in the heart of the Blanchardstown community. Their sponsorship means that this forest was provided at no cost to the school, keeping the school’s funds where they’re most needed.
