Making your donation go further
Croí is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the fight against heart disease and stroke, two major causes of death in Ireland. We provide our community with a state-of-the-art Heart and Stroke Centre in Galway and complimentary apartments for family members of those receiving treatment during one of the most stressful and frightening times of their lives. Our work is entirely funded by the proceeds of fundraising events, voluntary contributions and philanthropy, one of the best ways to support Croí and allow your funds go further is through tax effective giving.

What is Tax effective Giving
If you have kindly donated €250 or over in one calendar year to Croí, we can claim 45% tax back on your donation and make your funds go even further. This comes at no extra cost to you. For example, if you donate €25, we can claim €112.25 from revenue, bringing your total donation to €362.25 which makes a significant difference. This doesn’t just include one off donation, the same criteria is applicable for monthly donations.
Why give? With your help, we bring families and communities together to learn, exercise, grow and make simple lifestyle changes that promote recovery and can prevent 80% of cardiovascular disease! The friendship and accountability created through Croí help create healthier communities — not just physically, but mentally as well!
