Each year, TU Dublin Students Union (SU) proudly selects a different charity partner through a vote by the TU Dublin SU Student Council. This democratic process allows our student body to choose the cause that resonates most with them.
Once the charity partner is chosen, the SU is dedicated to organising a variety of RAG (Raise Awareness & Give) fundraising events and activities throughout the year, aiming to raise substantial funds and awareness for our partner. From fun runs and bake sales to charity concerts and raffles, the SU strives to engage the entire university community in fundraising efforts.
This year, we are proud to announce that the Irish Red Cross has been chosen. Their partnership with the International Red Cross to provide critical aid in Gaza was a significant factor in their selection.
Since its founding in 1939, the Irish Red Cross has been dedicated to serving people in need whether they are here in Ireland or caught up in humanitarian crises in countries and regions throughout the world. Today the Irish Red Cross maintains an active network of over 3,000 volunteers at 75 branch locations based in large and small communities throughout the Republic of Ireland.
Throughout the year, TU Dublin SU will host numerous fundraising events and activities to support the Irish Red Cross. Stay updated on our efforts and get involved by following us on Instagram at @tudublinsu.
