The Museum of Childhood Ireland
We’re launching a fundraising campaign to support the ongoing costs of the Museum of Childhood Ireland, which tells the story of the day-to-day lives of children growing up in Ireland. With your help, we can take the museum from a voluntary, unfunded museum to a professional, accredited one and find a permanent home for it. Your gift will also help us to create more of our exciting exhibitions and support our collection of Irish cultural/historical artefacts. Our first fundraising initiative will be a Giving Day on Tuesday 20th April 2021 and our goal will be to reach €1,000 in 24 hours. Please support our campaign on 20th April by sharing our post, and donating if you can here:museumofchildhood.ie/donations/please-donate/ ...
