The Magic of Christmas Appeal

The Magic of Christmas Appeal brings together some of Ireland’s best known Children’s charities – Barnardos, Barretstown, Make-A-Wish Ireland and Community Foundation Ireland – to raise over €1 million between 2022 and 2024 for children who need it most.

The funds will go directly towards helping vulnerable children in our communities affected by traumatic life events such as poverty, abuse, neglect and bereavement, and to supporting children whose lives are affected by serious childhood illness. By donating to The Magic of Christmas Appeal, you will Give the Gift of Childhood to those who need it most, because every child deserves Magic at Christmas.
