Whether it’s a stroll through your local park, a hike up a hill, or a few laps around the block – every step you take can help someone in need. A sponsored walk is a simple, feel-good way to raise money for Saint Vincent de Paul. From a stroll through your local park, climbing hills or even some laps around your block – every step counts! Grab your runners, bring your friends, and let’s get walking to help those in need.

Q & A
Organising a sponsored walk can be easy. Choose a route that suits you, set a date, invite your friends, and spread the word! You can create a sponsorship form or get in touch with fundraising@svp.ie so we can create an online donation page for you. Remember to stay safe, wear comfy shoes, and bring water. Don’t forget to prepare for the weather!
Not at all! Whether it’s 1km or 10km, your effort makes a difference. You can set your own goal or challenge yourself with a new personal best. You could even turn it into a fun themed event – wear costumes, carry banners, or bring your dog along for the journey!
The great thing about sponsored walks is absolutely anyone can get involved. From companies, to friends and families to even pets! Sponsored walks are a great way to give back. Just make sure the route is safe and manageable for all ages.
Bring water, wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and don’t forget sunscreen or a raincoat – Irish weather likes to keep us on our toes! Take photos, keep spirits high, and remember why you’re walking. Most importantly, enjoy yourself – you’re doing something wonderful.
