Childline, which is Ireland's No. 1 children's charity, will receive over €400,000 from 2008's concert. In 2007 the event raised €280,000 and, to date, Childline has benefited to the tune of €2.5 million from the previous concerts which have been held annually since 1997 and have featured such acts as Westlife, Robbie Williams, Girls Aloud, Mcfly, All Saints, Brian McFadden, S Club7, Blue, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Five, Sugababes, Busted, Big Brovaz, Samantha Mumba, Boyzone and many more.
Childline receives over 600,000 calls every year, but at present can only answer 50% of these calls. Childline aims to answer 100% of all calls received by 2011.
"Childline would like to thank all parties involved with the concert including the artists, organizers , Cheerios and The O2, Dublin who are generously giving their services and time free of charge on this historic opening night of the O2 arena. Their involvement will contribute significantly to ensuring that every child who contacts Childline will be heard."
The event, which is sponsored by Cheerios, is the hottest date in the pop calendar!
"Cheerios is delighted to once again sponsor this years Cheerios Childline Concert. To be the first concert in this stunning new venue is very exciting but most of all we at Nestle Cereals are very proud of our ongoing relationship with Childline - an Irish charity that makes a real difference to the lives of so many children" said Alison Healy
