Hey everyone and welcome to my profile!

First of all I'm going to tell you a bit about myself. I'm a 23 year old student from Ballinasloe currently studying for my masters in Marketing in Dublin Institute of Technology having graduated from UCD last year. I am extremely passionate about sport and have a keen interest in the business world. I am thrilled to have been chosen for 100 minds this year. I wanted to get involved because I have seen the incredible work they have done over the last two years and I felt it was an excellent opportunity for me to give back to society by raising some much needed funds for an excellent organisation while at the same time developing me as an individual.

Our goal this year is to work together and raise an amazing €1,000,000. We are all a group of young, unique, innovative Irish students and together we have been chosen to work to collectively raise this money. By thinking critically about the challenge ahead, putting a strategy in place and working as a team we can prove that even some of the biggest challenges faced can be conquered when we work together. Each student is given the challenge of raising €1,000 each in a creative and entrepreneurial way to collectively make a large donation to charity. Every single euro of these donations goes to the amazing Irish charity Childline ( www.childline.ie).

Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. I am very excited to share all of my fundraising ideas with you very soon!
