By organising a national fundraising weekend in which absolutely everyone can take part, whatever their means, we will ensure a huge boost for Irish youth mental health in 2017. 100% of the funds raised will be going to fund youth mental health charity projects such as evidence based education and skills training in schools and youth clubs, emergency helplines, a centre for holding mental health events, community outreach and counselling sessions for children in need.

One for Ireland is all aboutimpact. It’s about getting much needed funding to the best available charityprojects. To make sure we pick the best we are working with a panel ofprofessionals whose experience crosses campaigning and grassroots organizationto community youth development and psychology to media and business. 

Raising funds is only one part of the job. We want to create real change around mental health. That means the funding goes to programmes that will empower a generation to look after themselves and others with skill and compassion. This campaign won't just fund these programmes, by bringing retailers, the media, corporate organisations, schools and more together with the Irish public we will create an energy for better mental health that cannot be ignored. Most of all we will show whats possible when Irish people come together as a community around an issue.
