I have to hand the chocolate company Cadbury Ireland some points for marketing their company to reward persons in their nation by placing billboards to recognize the good deeds of their citizens.
Cadbury Ireland is using social media to ask people to nominate anyone who has done a wonderful deed by assisting another person who needs help.
Annette McCarthy who with the help of her husband and their two young boys received their reward of having a billboard in their honor in the town of Cork after the husband assisting an elderly woman who was stuck on a road with a flat tire that sidelined her for a while.
After Annette's husband was able to change the tire with ease, the elderly woman thanked him for assisting her get back on her way to her destination safe and sound.
The billboard is one of many that are being placed around Ireland to boost their chances of getting more business as well as promote the good works of the Irish in their homeland.
It is kind of odd to see advertisements reporting the good deeds done by common citizens since most billboards in Louisiana are usually to promote the business for attorney services which is one of the jokes that is mentioned on radio and television ads.

This is interesting that you wrote "Annett...with the help of her husband..." It is clear to me the the husband did all of the work if not the most of it, but it looks like he and the boys only helped Annett...did Annett initiate the help ?

@Deepizzaguy chatting is nice, I wonder what they were talking about...I can imagine an S.O.S application based on GPS, where users can text each other for help. If this is the case, then Annett saw the call for help and responded.
But, it is only my guess...

Annette had a chat with the senior citizen while her husband changed the tire.

What a nice deed to change a tire for an elderly person. There should be more people like this.

I like the way that the management of Cadbury International is using good deeds done by ordinary persons to promote their business.

That is true since good deeds hardly ever get noticed in public.
