Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at The Ireland Funds

As we come to the close of this unprecedented year, we simply want to THANK YOU for your incredible support and commitment to Ireland.

Thanks to you we have now provided four rounds of emergency funding to organizations on the frontlines in Ireland and have ensured communities all across the island have the key services they need to thrive. Your gifts are touching the lives of thousands of people.

VIRTUAL WINTER CELEBRATION EVENTS

Four virtual events in one week? It was ambitious...

Thanks to our friends and donors, we reached our equally ambitious target of $2 million from our virtual events in Chicago, Boston, New York and San Francisco.

We are so grateful to our generous sponsors and to all who attended.

Musical performances were provided by the Royal Irish Academy of Music and Music Generation, two outstanding programs funded by The Ireland Funds.

Most importantly, the impact, stories and messages of gratitude from projects on the frontlines in Ireland, were shared.
