Every Minute.
Every Hour. Every Euro Counts.
It’s Time to Give.

Every month, Irish Red Cross volunteers give one million minutes of their time to help others. That’s nearly 700 days of service, every single month. Rain or shine. Day or night.

Whenever people need us, our volunteers are there. But they need more time.

With your support, Irish Red Cross volunteers can be better prepared for emergencies, respond when disaster strikes, and help communities recover and rebuild afterwards.

This October, as the clocks go back, we all gain one hour. We are asking the people of Ireland to use that hour to support the Irish Red Cross.
