Looking for a new year’s resolution? 

Why not choose one that starts 2010 on a healthy note, and benefits sick children all over the Ireland  at the same time?

It’s simple - give up drinking for the month, then you ask your friends and family to sponsor you!

Drop the Drink is movement encouraging people, or groups of them, to give up drinking for the month of January and raise money for children’s hospitals and health care programmes across the country.

Signing up here today is easy and all you need to do is send your customised pledge page to your friends and family and ask them to sponsor you, or even join you! 

When do I Drop the Drink?

We are encouraging people to drop the drink from January 1st - New Year’s Day - until January 31st, 2010. 

How many weekends is that?

That’s a total of five weekends. 

I can’t start on New Year’s Day; can I start another day?

Yes, of course you can.  All we ask is that you commit to “drop the drink” for one month. 

Who will get the funds I raise?

The funds you raise will be directed to the nearest children’s hospital or ward with whom we work.  Our goal  is to make sure the funds raised locally stay locally. 

Why give up drink as a fundraising initiative?

After the party season of Christmas it’s a great way to clear the head! Plus there are some great health benefits to dropping the drink, including weight loss.
