Sunday Life and Hilton Northern Ireland team up with the DM Thomas Foundation for Young People to give away £10,000 to children’s charities for Christmas.

Running from Sunday 13th November to Friday 2nd December, local charities that help children across Belfast and Northern Ireland will have the opportunity to apply for a share of a £10,000 Christmas Giveaway. The £10,000 cash has been raised by big-hearted staff at Hilton Belfast and Hilton Templepatrick through running various events throughout the year. The Giveaway is aimed at helping those organisations that work hard to improve young lives, often with tight resources.

Since 2004, the DM Thomas Foundation for Young People has awarded over £330K in Northern Ireland. Outdoor learning, arts and crafts materials, travel costs, sports equipment, specialist and crisis counseling, therapy and cancer care, refurbishments and resource packs have all be funded through the Giveaway, enabling more than 6,400 young people to benefit.

Mark Walker, General Manager of Hilton Belfast said:We encourage charities big and small to get in touch for a slice of our Christmas Cracker £10k Giveaway. We are excited to find out about your work and how you are helping young people in our communities across the province.”

Sunday Life Editor, Martin Breen, said, “This initiative enables charities of all sizes to apply for a slice of the funding to deliver much needed services. Thousands of young people have already seen at first hand the benefit the money can bring”.
