Get involved in Daisy Days

Daisy Days takes place on September 10th, 11th and 12th 2009 and we need volunteers to help us with the collections in Newbridge and Naas

Aware is calling on all who are concerned about depression and suicide to join us on Daisy Days and help to raise funds for the vital support, information and education services that the organisation provides. This is their biggest fundraiser each year and we really need your help. Don't underestimate the difference that even an hour of your time can make. All of the funds raised during Daisy Days go directly to the organisation.

This is an ideal opportunity to do something positive: depression is something which can affect any one of us at any time in our lives, and it's important that we all work together to encourage a more open and understanding society, where anyone who is affected by depression can feel able to access the help and support available. Aware depends on fundraising events like this for over 80% of it's funding each year, and Daisy Days is their single largest annual event.

Collectors can give whatever time they can to the collections on any or all of the three days. Even one hour can help us greatly, but of course the more time you can give, the greater the opportunity for local people to contribute to the event.

Aware is making a difference, and you can too.

Please volunteer now by emailing your phone number to mariseoshouse@gmail.com or text 086 8267104 and we will phone you to make arrangements.
