‘IRELAND FOR UKRAINE,’ A MAJOR PUBLIC FUNDRAISING INITIATIVE, IS LAUNCHED Media Centre A group of Ireland’s leading media organisations – including RTÉ – have come together to form an unprecedented coalition, and today launch a public fundraising campaign, ‘Ireland for Ukraine’. The campaign aims to raise vital funds for those affected by the conflict, as well as those who have been displaced. The campaign is inspired by the incredible level of public support from Ireland for Ukraine to date. You can go to www.irelandforukraine.ie to donate now. The initiative will feature across local and national radio, television, print and online media, with all proceeds received by registered charity The Community Foundation for Ireland, who have 22 years’ experience in philanthropy and grant making. 50% of the funds collected will be distributed to the Irish Red Cross, Concern, UNICEF and Trocaire. The other 50% will be pooled into a fund for grant aid applications available to Irish organisations and local groups assisting the anticipated 200,000 incoming people who have been forced to flee Ukraine and are seeking the safety of our communities in Ireland. Donations can be made online at www.irelandforukraine.ie or by the Revolut app. Denise Charlton, Chief Executive of The Community Foundation for Ireland, said: “A European humanitarian crisis is unfolding which requires a response both on the ground and in our own communities. ‘Ireland for Ukraine’ delivers that response. The funds raised through the generosity of viewers, readers and listeners will be used to support those trapped in the war zone and the growing numbers seeking shelter here. There are many challenges ahead. The protection needed for children travelling alone, assisting refugees with disabilities, measures to combat human trafficking and so much more. It may at first seem overwhelming but with the continuing generosity of the Irish people these are challenges which can and will be met.” The Taoiseach, Micheál Martin said: “I want to congratulate the national and local media outlets who have worked and cooperated for the first time to enhance the incredible public goodwill and generosity of the Irish public on their determination to aid and assist the people of Ukraine. I am pleased to confirm that the government will allocate €5 m to the campaign and fund, Ireland for Ukraine. This will help start its focused charity work for the people of Ukraine at home and abroad. I wish you all the best on your great work”. The campaign features a 30 second TV and radio advert voiced by Derry Girls and Holding actress Siobhan McSweeney that will commence today, and will be supplemented by an extensive digital display campaign, as well as a dedicated campaign on social media. #IrelandForUkraine For further information please go to www.irelandforukraine.ie #IrelandForUkraine and #ÉireArSonNahÚcráine The full list of participants: - RTÉ - Virgin Media Television - SKY Ireland - The Journal - The Currency - DMGM - Radiocentre - IBI - Mediahuis - The Anglo-Celt - The Meath Chronicle - The Connaught Telegraph - The Westmeath Independent - The Westmeath Examiner - The Connacht Tribune and City Tribune - The Donegal News - The Tuam Herald - The Clare Champion - The Northern Standard - The Southern Star - The Munster Express - The Nenagh Guardian - The Mayo News

Tá sé mar aidhm ag an bhfeachtas cistí ríthábhachtacha a thiomsú dóibh siúd atá thíos leis an gcoinbhleacht, chomh maith leo siúd a easáitíodh.

Beidh an tionscnamh ar fud na meán raidió, teilifíse, clóite agus ar líne áitiúil agus náisiúnta, agus gheobhaidh an carthanas cláraithe The Community Foundation for Ireland, a bhfuil taithí 22 bliain acu ar dhaonchairdeas agus ar dheonú deontas. Dáilfear 50% de na cistí a bhaileofar ar Chrois Dhearg, Imní, UNICEF agus Trocaire na hÉireann. Comhthiomsófar an 50% eile i gciste d’iarratais ar chúnamh deontais atá ar fáil d’eagraíochtaí Éireannacha agus do ghrúpaí áitiúla a chuideoidh leis an 200,000 duine nua a bhfuiltear ag súil leo agus ar cuireadh iallach orthu teitheadh ón Úcráin agus atá ag lorg sábháilteacht ár bpobal in Éirinn.

Úsáidfear na cistí a bhaileofar trí fhlaithiúlacht an lucht féachana, na léitheoirí agus na n-éisteoirí chun tacú leo siúd atá gafa i gcrios an chogaidh agus leis na huimhreacha atá ag dul i méid atá ag lorg dídine anseo. Tá go leor dúshlán romhainn. An chosaint is gá do leanaí atá ag taisteal ina n-aonar, ag cabhrú le dídeanaithe faoi mhíchumas, bearta chun gáinneáil ar dhaoine a chomhrac agus go leor eile. B’fhéidir go bhfuil an chuma air ar dtús go bhfuil sé thar a bheith mór ach le flaithiúlacht leanúnach mhuintir na hÉireann is dúshláin iad seo ar féidir agus a gcomhlíonfar.” Dúirt an Taoiseach, Micheál Martin: “Ba mhaith liom comhghairdeas a dhéanamh leis na easraisí meán náisiúnta agus áitiúla a d’oibrigh agus a chomhoibrigh den chéad uair chun feabhas a chur ar dhea-thoil agus flaithiúlacht dochreidte an phobail Éireannaigh as a ndiongbháilteacht cabhrú agus cabhrú le muintir na hÚcráine. Tá áthas orm a dheimhniú go leithdháilfidh an Rialtas €5 m ar an bhfeachtas agus ar an gciste, Éire don Úcráin. Cabhróidh sé seo le tús a chur lena hobair charthanachta dhírithe do mhuintir na hÚcráine sa bhaile agus thar lear. Guím gach rath ort ar do chuid oibre iontach”.
