Welcome to my 100minds profile!
I'm Sarah and I'm absolutely delighted to have been chosen for this year's 100minds event.
100minds is a non-profit organisation, which sets 100 of Ireland's brightest students the challenge of raising 1000 in 120days for two amazing Irish charities. For more info on 100minds, the people and companies involved, just check out the webpage!
This year 100minds has chosen to raise much needed funds for Barnardos and Blossom Ireland. Barnardos works with disadvantaged and vulnerable children and helps them become entitled to the same opportunities as all other children. For more info see: http://www.barnardos.ie
Blossom Ireland is a charity which gives children with learning disabilities the same opportunities as all other children. For more info see: http://www.blossomireland.ie/help-us.asp
Over the next few months I will be keeping this page updated on my fundraising project so far, so make sure to keep an eye on my updates! You can also check out my Twitter (https://twitter.com/Sarah_Murphy_7) and LinkedIn (http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=272104413&trk=nav_responsive_tab_profile) for all updates too!
If you want to donate anything at all and help me reach my target of 1,000, please do, by clicking 'DONATE NOW'! Its quick and easy to do via this page and there is 100% transparency. By this, I mean I or 100minds will never access to the money, it will go directly to the charities and you can keep track of where every cent goes!
If you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact me at sarah-j-murphy@hotmail.com.

I am so excited to announce that for my fundraising project I will be running a fashion show along with fellow participant (and housemate) Bronte Wakefield!
We have already got the ball in motion and have confirmed Divine Boutique and Lara Fashions to showcase their clothes on the night. We are delighted to have them on board - thanks again Mary and Lara.
We still have a lot of details to iron out yet but we hope to make this a big and exciting event in early February with:
A special guest host Various looks and styles for spring from bridal wear to maternity wear A prize for the best-dressed lady on the night A guest DJ A professional photographer Goodie bags Make-up and Style tips A raffle and much more
So keep an eye on my updates and my twitter account and look out for #Catwalk4Kids!!!!!
Welcome to the Hotel C.....Wait a minute
Posted: over 8 years ago
Emails are flying out in their hundreds on our end trying to organise everything together for the fashion show and we already have some people on board. Today we added the amazing Starla to our team (http://www.starla.ie) and the beautiful and talented Zoe Clark has agreed to be our make up artist for the night (http://www.zoeclark.com)
However we are really struggling to get a venue for the night. We really want to hold it in a hotel in the South Dublin area, and while I have had some lovely replies from various hotels, the best they can do for me is 75%. I understand its a huge ask but we really want to try get a complimentary venue because that means ALL the money raised goes straight to charity.
Still, its early days yet!
If anyone can help me out or could help sponsor us for a venue, please contact me at sarah-j-murphy@hotmail.com

Still having trouble with securing our venue, so I began to look for sponsorship/PR help and an exciting phone-call tomorrow may change everything so stay tuned!
We also have been offered a complementary text ad on the back page of the Irish Times which will be sure to help promote our event!

Great day for Catwalk4kids trio. We had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Philippa Buckley (http://www.studio44.ie) in her home for a very productive meeting. Philippa has very kindly come on as the role of a mentor to the three of us and she was amazing. She gave us loads of new ideas and really helped us decide what direction we wanted to take Catwalk4Kids in.
We are even now more excited than ever to get everything into action and with Philippa by our sides its sure to be an amazing event!
