About the Irish Youth Foundation
We would like to thank The Irish Youth Foundation who contributed to the development of this site.
The Irish Youth Foundation (UK) was established in 1989 and is the only national charity in Britain specifically aimed at helping disadvantaged young Irish people and their families.
Since its inception The Irish Youth Foundation has awarded over £5.5 million to help improve the lives and opportunities of young Irish people in the UK. Grants are awarded annually to a wide range of welfare organisations and community groups working with disadvantaged young Irish people and their families in Britain and Northern Ireland and to Irish students at colleges and universities in the UK.
As the foundation is almost entirely voluntary, the funds raised go directly to where they are most needed.
