The post Record breaking Dormant AccountsFund allocation for 2026 appeared first on Archery Ireland.
]]>€135,000 under the Sport Ireland Dormant Accounts Funding Programme for
2026!
The funding allocation represents an over 60% increase on the record amount
invested last year and is the largest individual funding grant to date.
The DAF Programme funds projects and initiatives across a wide range of
sports. These projects support the Government’s vision for delivering projects
that address participation barriers for individuals from diverse communities,
regardless of socioeconomic background, gender, disability, sexual orientation,
and ethnicity. Further projects are providing targeted training and educational
opportunities, provision of essential equipment and minor infrastructure, and
enhancing volunteer engagement within underserved communities and with
people with disabilities.
All funded initiatives will support at least one of the five core pillars of the Sport
Ireland Policy on Diversity and Inclusion in Sport: Change, Communication,
Access, Capacity, Leadership.
The further investment will support Archery Ireland to enhance all aspects of
diverse participation in sports across the DAF Programme target areas.
Further information on the allocation can be found here on the Sport Ireland
website:

]]>Over 300 community organisations and schools across Ireland have received grants totalling €1,436,292 from the Intel Ireland employee volunteer programme.
The Intel Ireland Matching Grant programme sees a grant paid by the Intel Foundation for every hour that an Intel employee volunteers at an approved organisation. In 2024 this marks the sixth consecutive year that Intel Ireland will be donating over €1 million to community organisations across Ireland. In 20234 Intel Ireland employees volunteered just over 140,000 hours that were eligible to be matched through this initiative.
Since the inception of the Intel Ireland initiative, more than €14 million has been donated to charities, schools, sports clubs, social initiatives, and community schemes across Ireland.
Employees in Ireland make up just 5% of the overall Intel employee population but the Irish volunteering efforts account for 20% of Intel’s global grant amount. We would love to build on this success in 2026, and encourage any of our members who are employees of Intel to get involved with Archery Ireland, and log their volunteer hours for us.
