My name is Heather Gough and I am delighted to be apart of the 100minds team of 2017/18 in aid of Temple Street Childrens Hospital. I am currently in my 3rd year of Food Innovation in DIT.
What exactly is 100 minds? Well it is a project set up in 2013 where 100 students are brought together over the course of 100 days to each raise €1,000. It is now in its 5th year and has so far raised over half a million for various children charities.
This year all the money raised will be going towards, 1) Buying life saving equipment for the hospital, such as eight Nasophayngeal Endoscopes and a VuMax HD A/B Ultrasound Scanner for Theatre. 2) The "sibling camps" which has shown to be hugely beneficial. It involves the brothers/sisters of the children in hospital coming in and be able to talk to the doctors and nurses and asking any questions they may have about their siblings illness. 3) Organising seasonal parties within the hospital to make the childs time spent within the hospital as normal as can be.
If you would like to read more about the impact 100minds has please go to http://www.100minds.org/impact.
Over the course of the 100 days I will be planning on organising a few events to reach €1,000 target. However if you would like to donate now please click "Donate Now" at the top of the page !!
