Charitable Giving

Our Kinsale, Limerick and GBS Cork operations support local charitable, cultural and sporting organisations and events, as well as health and educational-based projects in our community.

Recent initiatives have included

  • A multi-year, all-Ireland social impact initiative in collaboration with Family Carers Ireland. This transformative multi-year initiative includes a financial contribution and volunteering opportunities for Lilly employees in Ireland to contribute their time and expertise through volunteering, directly supporting FCI’s initiatives and family carers in their local communities

  • Sponsorship of the Kinsale 10-Mile Road Race, an annual race that takes place on the coastal roads between Kinsale town and the Lilly manufacturing site

  • Lilly Miles for Smiles – a virtual walk from Cork to our headquarters in Indianapolis in aid of AWARE and The Samaritans
