About Us

The Ireland Funds is a global philanthropic network dedicated to advancing opportunity and well-being across the island of Ireland. Our work in four areas — arts and culture, community development, education and innovation, and peace and reconciliation — promotes long-term, sustainable impact and has been a catalyst for extraordinary progress.

Focus Areas

Creative expression cultivates vibrant communities. We support arts and culture to bring people together, preserve Irish heritage, and strengthen civic life.

Our grants support social, economic, mental, and physical health to create stronger, more resilient communities.

From early childhood to lifelong learning, we’re supporting work that advances ground-breaking research and expands access to education and opportunity.

We fund programs that build trust across differences since our founding. Equipping communities to respond constructively to a shifting world remains as important as ever.
