Plan Ireland

Thank you for your interest in Plan Ireland. 

Founded in 1937, Plan is one of the oldest and largest children's charities in the world, working to lift millions of children and their families out of poverty in 50 developing countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America. Plan directly supports more than 1,500,000 children and their families, and an estimated 9,000,000 others living in communities working with Plan. We are an independent, not-for-profit organisation without political agenda or religious orientation.

Nobel Peace Prize winner, John Hume, is the Patron of Plan Ireland.

Your generous donations go to life-saving projects, such as providing clean water supplies and child immunisation, which make an immediate and lasting impact to the world's poorest children. We know that it is impossible for a child to reach their potential unless their community is developing alongside them. So Plan's commitment to each community means that the health, sanitation and education programmes we establish are long-term and sustainable.

We believe all children have the right to food, clean water, health, education and respect. Plan works to meet these basic needs of children as well as addressing the causes and consequences of poverty at all levels.
