100minds
We're calling on third-level students and
working professionals across Ireland to challenge themselves, to stand out from the crowd and make a real impact for sick children by joining 100minds – the ultimate student fundraiser!
100minds Participants
100minds is a unique opportunity for 100 ambitious students currently enrolled in a college or university in Ireland.
Â
For students who are looking to stand out from the crowd, who are up for a challenge, and who want to exercise their entrepreneurial muscles through a unique fundraising project, activity or event, 100minds is the challenge for you. Selected students will have 100 days to raise €1,000 – or more!
100minds Mentors
Every student who participates in 100minds will be paired up with a 100minds mentor. Our mentors are a group of professional individuals working in some of Ireland’s top companies. Over the years we have been fortunate to have amazing mentors from a range of high-profile organisations including LinkedIn, Facebook, Google, KPMG, Bank of Ireland, Arthur Cox and Accenture.
The role of the 100minds mentor is to motivate the participant in achieving their fundraising goals, advise on any potential project initiatives and provide guidance when needed.
Meet our 100minds Ambassadors
We are delighted to announce Ailbhe and Izzy Keane as this year’s 100minds Ambassadors!
