Fundraising & Centenary Volunteers Required

2012 is the Centenary anniversary of the foundation of Peamount Hospital.

While the Service is celebrating this important landmark appropriately the Centenary also provides a platform for:

  • Highlighting the work of Peamount among the community
  • As an opportunity to publicise our redevelopment plan for the Service
  • To launch our major capital fundraising programme to attract the funding required for the redevelopment of Peamount

There will be several Centenary related and fundraising events during the year including:

  1. Keynote ceremony attended by the President of Ireland
  2. Major Community Festival
  3. Medical Seminars & Conferences
  4. Several fundraising events and activities

There are a variety of ways in which volunteers can help including, but by no means exclusively, the following:

  • Researching and contacting supporters, businesses, organisations, clubs, suppliers, performers etc
  • Promoting Peamount at events, in clubs and organisations and in public places
  • Contacting supporters seeking help, sponsorship, selling tickets etc
  • Conducting surveys
  • Seeking the support of small businesses in promoting events, sourcing free products & services, selling tickets, securing spot prizes, sponsorship, advertising etc
  • Selling tokens, tickets etc in public places
  • Liaising with staff, volunteers, supporters etc regarding fundraising
  • Helping to organise events
  • Helping with mailings, leaflet drops, erection of posters etc
  • Helping with the administration around fundraising, promotion and events

Overall volunteers will be supporting the Fundraising & Events Manager in organising fundraising activities, raising the profile of Peamount and planning the Centenary celebrations. They will also support the work of the organising committees preparing the fundraising and centenary events.
