Tipp stars promoting GOAL Jersey Day 2025

Tipperary All-Ireland senior hurling winners Jason Forde and Michael Breen, along with senior camogie ace Grace O’Brien are lending their support for the return of the GOAL Jersey Day, the humanitarian aid charity’s national flagship fundraising campaign, which takes place on Friday, 10th October.

This year GOAL is celebrating 37 years of Jersey Day and in 2024, over 40,000 participants from 120 businesses and 420 schools helped raise an incredible €240,000 for GOAL. This time around, with leading Irish sports broadcasters Premier Sports as our title sponsor, we’re aiming even higher — with a fundraising target of €250,000.

Whether you choose your county colours, your favourite soccer or rugby club, or even your national jersey, every contribution will support vulnerable communities in Gaza, Sudan, and other crisis-affected regions. Join us and be part of a powerful movement for change.

GOAL Jersey Day offers everyone an opportunity to wear their colours with pride while fostering a sense of camaraderie in school or in the workplace. By doing so, you play a vital role in supporting GOAL’s mission to help some of the world’s most vulnerable communities move from extreme crisis to resilience, where everyone has equal rights and opportunities.

Participants are invited to showcase their involvement and inspire others by sharing images and experiences on social media using the hashtag #GOALJerseyDay.
