The Fund is worth €20,000 and is open to all young people in Dublin aged between 15-19, and want to do something different. There are five awards of €2000 and each of the five winners will have a further opportunity to pitch for another €2,000 award. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert. You create the campaign.
