At the Irish Youth Foundation, we believe that every child deserves the chance to thrive. Yet today, 1 in 5 children in Ireland live in poverty, facing barriers that limit their potential before life has even begun. Together, we can change that.
Our corporate partners play a vital role in building a fairer Ireland. By joining forces with IYF, your company can make a lasting impact on the lives of children and young people experiencing disadvantage. This is more than charity; it’s an investment in Ireland’s future.
Corporate partnerships are at the heart of our mission to break the cycle of disadvantage for children and young people in Ireland. Their support doesn’t just fund programmes, it fuels opportunities, opens doors, and creates lasting change. Our corporate partners allow us deliver targeted initiatives that tackle educational inequality, mental health challenges, and social exclusion, giving young people the tools they need to thrive.
Thanks to the incredible commitment of our corporate partners, €282,869 was invested in 2025, directly impacting the lives of 5,427 children and young people across Ireland. This support meant more safe spaces, more mentoring, more opportunities and more hope for a brighter future.
At IYF, we build partnerships shaped around each company’s goals and capacity. We take the time to understand what matters to our partners and create a collaboration that fits their priorities, resources, and desired level of involvement.
To support this, we offer a range of partnership levels. These options give organisations the flexibility to engage in a way that works for them, while allowing us to align our efforts and create meaningful, lasting impact together.
No matter the level, every partnership is grounded in shared purpose, transparency, and a commitment to delivering real value.
Your partnership with IYF will help us fund vital programs in education, mental health, and employability, programs that change lives and break cycles of poverty. Join a community of like-minded organisations committed to building a brighter future for Ireland’s children.
