Children’s Health Foundation launches Halloween fundraiser for sick children

Children’s Health Foundation is urging the public to raise vital funds for sick children by taking part in its “Trick or Treat for sick children” campaign this Halloween.

Participants can contribute in a range of ways, from dressing up for work and organising spooky activities for school friends to holding bake sales. All money raised will be donated to the Children’s Health Foundation.

The funds will support CHI hospitals and urgent care centres at Crumlin, Temple Street, Tallaght and Connolly, aiding ground‑breaking paediatric research as well as patient and family support services.

The charity has been running the Trick or Treat fundraiser for 26 years, with proceeds earmarked for paediatric health initiatives across the country.
