How you can help us

Join the movement

Our goal is to reach 20,000 children and young people living in disadvantage.

The kids and their critical life supports; the incredible charities, organisations and youth workers that work tirelessly to keep their futures bright, need Ireland’s help.

Despite the overwhelming demand for additional support, fundraising opportunities have virtually disappeared due to covid, and government funding alone cannot meet the need.

This is why we are teaming up with Ireland’s biggest and brightest stars – from the worlds of sport, music, literature, TV and comedy – to inspire the people of Ireland to get behind #GenerationPandemic.

Ireland’s familiar faces kicked off the campaign on World Children’s Day, Friday 20th November 2020, which to date has raised over €100,000!

Please get involved. Post your childhood pics, donate an hour of your pay, and nominate a pal.

Childhood can’t wait. We must act now.
