Fighting for children – Bernard Dunne teams up with Plan International

Father of two, and former World Boxing Champion, Bernard Dunne is one of Plan International Ireland’s celebrity Ambassadors.

A broadcaster and sports commentator, Bernard will raise awareness of the rights of children, shine a light on violations of these rights, and support Plan International Ireland’s strategic programmes to protect children and empower girls.

The work that Plan International does is phenomenal. They’re on the ground, making a difference to the lives of thousands of boys and girls.

 

In May 2016, Bernard visited Sierra Leone to see first hand the work of Plan International, and to see why it’s so important to keep working to protect children, and empower girls.
