How You Can Help

The fundraising department has developed and grown over the years and most of our events are now annual dates on the fundraising calendar. These are very successful thanks, in large part, to the work of voluntary committees that help us to organize each event. All our volunteers give freely of their time and do not receive payment.

If you would like to get involved in any of our fundraising events, or help us to explore new ideas please contact Annie Gallagher or Colette Schutz on 66 14 911 or email email.

Friends of the Rape Crisis Centre

The Friends of the Rape Crisis Centre, under the chairmanship of Graham Crisp, is a group of committed people dedicated to raising funds to cover our deficit. We all continue to enlist your help in confronting the serious social evil respresented by the alarming incidence of rape and sexual violence at all levels of our society.

We are here to listen
