It's not all about Breakfast...
If you're not a fan of breakfast then why not substitute a breakfast morning for a coffee morning, or if you're feeling adventurous, impress your guests with a tea party!
Remember, no matter how big or small your breakfast, the money you raise will make a real difference to the lives of some of the most vulnerable children in Ireland.
€5 could answer 1 more call to Childline.
€100 could enable us to speak to an extra 20 children through Childline who desperately need our help.
€300 could answer 60 calls to Childline, helping vulnerable Irish children who feel they have nowhere else to turn.
€6,250 could cover the costs of running Childline for 12 hours, enabling us to answer 1,250 calls.
€9,227 could pay for an extra 15 volunteers to be trained enabling Childline to answer on average 22,500 more calls over a 12 month period.

I am 7 years old and on the 9th April my mummy died from cancer.I never got to say goodbye to her. I really miss her and i cry every night since she died”
“I just found out today about my best friend she is self harming herself and this isn’t the first time i don’t know what to do, what should I do and I don’t want to lose my friendship with her!”
“… No ones in my house right now, ive no one to talk to here, I don’t want to leave any of my friends or family behind i love them so much but im so upset and angry inside and it won’t go away”
