We are so grateful for all your support in 2025. Every time you share out about Anam Cara, make a donation, or attend one of our workshops, you are helping to ensure that no parent across the island has to grieve the death of a child alone. Supporting our vital services and joining us in sharing evidence-based resources around parental bereavement is crucial in the weeks, months, and years following a child’s death– we could not do this without you.
However you are able to support Anam Cara this giving season, we extend our deepest gratitude and warmest wishes to you and yours.
If there is someone close to your heart you’re missing this season– a parent, friend, mentor, or anyone dear– we warmly invite you to share a light of love on our Remembrance Tree. Each light and bauble is an opportunity to speak someone’s name, keep their memory bright, and provide key funds to ensure Anam Cara is here to serve each parent who finds themselves facing the devastation of losing a beloved child.
Runner? Trekker? Wish that you were? We are now accepting expressions of interest for our 2026 Anam Cara Camino, and 2026 Dublin Marathon. If you choose to run or walk for Anam Cara you transform a hobby you love into healing and transformation for families in need. Give yourself something to look forward to through the long days of winter, and share that hope of brighter tomorrows through your fundraising goals. Whether you are an experienced fundraiser or new to grassroots campaigns, our team will support you every step of the way.
One of the most common things we hear from bereaved parents about Anam Cara is: ‘If only I had known about Anam Cara sooner.’ This is where you, as a friend and supporter of Anam Cara, come in. Whether you are requesting information packs to share with your community, reposting or sharing our events on LinkedIn, Facebook, or Instagram, or keeping posters about Anam Cara up to date, one of the most valuable ways you can support our services is in sharing about Anam Cara.
For everything that you do to ensure no parent has to grieve alone, this festive season and beyond, you have our sincerest gratitude.
