Go the extra Mile this Christmas

Help vulnerable communities survive crises

WE CANNOT DO IT WITH YOU!

As we wrap up the #GOALMile, we thank all the amazing organisers and participants globally who went the Extra Mile last Christmas! 🏃‍♀️💚 Because of you, in 2024, we broke records - the highest number of GOAL Miles, the highest number of people who took part, and the highest amount raised - over €753,000!

A big thank you as well to our amazing sponsor, AIB, for helping make this year's GOAL Mile a success.

It's inspiring to see communities come together and go the extra mile to provide vital, life-saving support for people around the world whose lives are impacted by conflict, climate disasters, and disease.

Together, we're making a difference and creating brighter futures. Because that's what GOALies do! 🌟

What is the GOAL Mile?

The GOAL Mile, proudly supported by AIB, is held throughout December and New Year's Day in villages, towns and cities across Ireland and virtually throughout the world. The event sees tens of thousands of people run or walk a mile to raise funds for GOAL.

About GOAL

For over 45 years, GOAL has been at the forefront of responding to worldwide humanitarian crises, working with vulnerable communities in more than 60 countries.

Today, GOALies are continuing to work with the most vulnerable communities in 14 countries across Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and Europe. Providing life-saving assistance to those impacted by crises and supporting them on the path to recovery.

In Sudan, where we have worked for over 35 years, the ongoing power struggle between military factions has caused the world’s largest displacement crisis. GOAL continues to provide essential services and support to those affected.

Responding to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where the most recent conflict has claimed nearly 45,000 lives and left almost 1 million at risk from harsh winter conditions, GOAL is partnering with Palestinian NGO Taawon to deliver vital aid.

Your support of the GOAL Mile, whether through registration or donations, will make it possible for us to continue to be there for those who need us most.

Help us make a life-changing difference today.
