Applications are now open for the Coca-Cola Thank You Fund to provide some much-needed support to youth groups across the island of Ireland.

It’s been ten years since we first launched The Coca-Cola Thank You Fund, set up to mark the 125th anniversary of their company and give back to some of Ireland and Northern Ireland’s most amazing youth-centric causes.

In light of the devastating impact of COVID-19 on communities and young people, they have committed this year’s Coca-Cola Thank You Fund to the responsive efforts of non-profits on the frontline of their own local battle.

They’re dishing out €50,000 to worthy causes that fit their 2020 theme of ‘A fund to help with young people’s recovery post-COVID-19.’

Funding Information

From there, successful recipients will be awarded either €5,000 or €10,000 in funding, as decided by our judging panel.
