Our Social Responsibility

As title sponsor of the Tennis Ireland Junior Kids Program, AerCap supports the development of young players and encourages greater participation in tennis among young children across Ireland.

Through the AerCap TI Junior Kids Tour, hundreds of children under the age of 10 are introduced to the sport through fun, age-appropriate competition at regional and national events. The program promotes health and wellbeing while helping young players develop confidence, skills, and a lifelong enjoyment of tennis.

AerCap is the primary sponsor of Leinster Hockey’s Development Program, supporting the growth and development of players across the province.

AerCap proudly supports the Aisling Project, an after-school program serving children and young people in Ballymun on the northside of Dublin city, an area that experiences high levels of social deprivation.

As part of this partnership, AerCap has committed funding towards the development of a new centralized kitchen facility, helping the Aisling Project expand its capacity to provide vital meal services and support to the local community. AerCap employees also share their professional experience and volunteer their time to help create positive opportunities for the young people who participate in the program.
