SVP volunteer Mike’s favourite volunteering work with SVP is education grants. With a relatively small investment, you can change a life forever. He remembers Rebecca, a single mother of three, struggling with school costs.
Thanks to your kindness, she enrolled in a third-level course, gained her qualification, and is now a business lecturer—an inspiration to her children and community. Your compassion makes this possible.
In 2025, SVP received almost 3,500 calls for help with back-to-school costs such as uniforms, fees, electronic devices, and exams—often spending over €1,000 per child. Many parents felt guilty of not doing enough and often faced debt.
Thanks to your generosity, 12,326 families had uniform costs covered, and 700 students received bursaries. You ensure no child is disadvantaged and every student can reach their potential.
