All funds raised from the Dublin ‘Way To Go’ Hill Walk will go directly to CARI services and will have an immediate impact on the lives of the children and families affected by child sexual abuse. There are many ways you can help to raise funds; you can ask your friends, family and work colleagues to sponsor you; make a single/regular donation; run your own event; support our events! We will be only too happy to provide information, advice and support! To start fundraising, why not set up an online fundraising page at www.mycharity.ie or email [email protected] or call our fundraising team on (01) 8308529. Where Does My Registration Fee Go? The money raised will go towards helping us continue to provide our vital services - Therapy, Helpline and Court Accompaniment Support Services (CASS). Why Donate To CARI? Your donations to CARI over the past 25 years have allowed us to help thousands of families facing the trauma of their child being abused. Sadly and scandalously, the state, despite the passage of twenty five years, has not yet set up a specialised national service for child victims comparable to that available for adults and so CARI needs to continue this important and life changing work and ask for your support.
