The Ireland Funds
COVID-19 Response Fund
Dear {!Contact.FirstName},
I hope that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy.
The world we know is changing daily with the COVID-19 pandemic and we at The Ireland Funds are responding to the deep needs we are seeing across Ireland both North and South.
The Challenge
The COVID-19 pandemic is proving devastating to nonprofit organizations across the island of Ireland. The key services they provide to Ireland's communities have never been more vital. Yet organizations are facing limited resources and collapsing fundraising streams as they strive to deliver. For some, this crisis is challenging not only their reach, but their very existence.
The Response
We invite you to help Ireland at this time with a gift to The Ireland Funds COVID-19 Response Fund.
100%
100% of every gift goes directly to outstanding organizations serving the greatest needs across the island of Ireland.
