Grow: Who We Are
How We Can Help You?
We are here to help you as best as we possibly can. Contact the Grow National fundraising team on tel: (086) 418 2125 or email [email protected] to discuss your fundraising idea. A team member will work with you throughout the planning process for your fundraiser, from concept to completion. We can supply you with t-shirts, collection buckets, leaflets, as well as promote your fundraiser to the thousands of Grow supporters. Where possible, a member of our team will attend your fundraiser. We are a small team but we will do our best to go to your event and meet all those who are supporting your fundraiser.
Testimonial from one of our members:
