Why Partner with SVP?
SVP brings credibility, experience, and deep community trust to every partnership.
As Irelandโs largest voluntary charitable organisation, we have been supporting individuals and families for more than 180 years, working at the heart of communities nationwide.
โAfter my husband died, itโs just been me and my two cats, Ollie and Charles. With my daughters living abroad, I worry sometimes about how I will manage and I often put the cats before myself. The support I received from SVP has made such a difference. The grocery vouchers brought real relief and peace of mind. Last Christmas, we felt warm, well fed, and looking forward to a cosy time together. Iโm very grateful for the kindness and support.โ
We combine the scale andย expertiseย of a national organisationย with the ability to deliver local impact, ensuring your support reaches the communities that matter most to your business.
Working closely with you, we create programmes aligned with your CSR and ESG priorities andย turnย purposeย into action.
โI was shaking when I made the call to my local SVP Conference. All I wanted was a proper bed for my son. After months of homelessness, we finally had a place, but it was pretty empty of furniture and we were sharing a bed with our young son, Shane. But SVP came to the rescue and delivered a second bed. Shane is now doing much better and thriving in school.โ
