As Darragh Did

As Darragh Did advances its charitable purpose by inviting applications from community organisations for funding that will provide them with the means to further engage, grow, encourage new members and thrive. Over our last financial year (ending 30th June 2023), which was our second full year in operation we successfully supported 49 projects across the country. Examples of the projects include retirement groups, early intervention support, community development projects, local bands, youth, theatre and sports groups and clubs, and scout troops. As Darragh Did is enabled to support its beneficiary projects through fundraising events, once-off donations and growing the number of monthly donors. A highlight of the 2022-2023 financial year was a hugely successful fundraising event in partnership with the Galway Cycle which raised over €80,000. In April 2024, the inaugural Walking the Walk fundraiser took place with plans to make this an annual event.
