The matter was brought to the attention of the Society today when a Santry resident contacted the Society\x92s head office to advise that people wearing t-shirts bearing a Red Cross emblem called to his home yesterday evening asking for donations to help Red Cross operations in Myanmar.

The Society has investigated the matter and is satisfied that no-one acting on its behalf is undertaking door-to-door collections in the Area. The Society has notified An Garda S\xEDochana and urges anyone who has such callers at their door to do likewise.
