Street fundraising company Face2Face Fundraising Ireland has launched with campaigns for Unicef Ireland, Focus Ireland and ActionAid Ireland.
Face2Face Fundraising Ireland, which offers a mix of street fundraising solutions, opened its offices in Dublin in the autumn of 2003.
The company carries out fundraising through personal solicitation on high streets, using a combination of teams that are either roaming or residential. Initially three teams of fundraisers are working across the whole of Eire, with this figure increasing as the year progresses.

Managing Director, Veronica Ochiltree, says Face2Face Fundraising Ireland will be a valuable addition to the Irish charitable sector. She said: “Our experience in other countries shows us that this form of fundraising is the fastest growing and one of the most successful yet developed.”

Based in Oxford, England, but with offices across Austria, Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States of America, the Group employs over 500 people offering services including street, door-to-door and telephone fundraising acquisition and development, as well as recruitment, donor relationship management, data processing and BACS accreditation.
