What is Up SharkNation!
To celebrate International Hug Day, the guys sit down with Marian Carroll, CEO (volunteer) - Ronald McDonald house, Dublin. They chat about the important work the charity does and and how they provide a lifeline for parents with seriously ill children so that they can spend as much time with their child as possible.
Although RMDH is a charity, it faced the same challenges that faced many businesses over the Covid - 19 lockdowns.
Social distancing and the curtailment of live events has led to a 50% decrease in donations and a rethink on how they fundraise for the cause.
They Cover:
1. The House - and the services it provides
2. How Marian got started and how the project has grown
3. Challenges running a not for profit
4. Steps they have taken to modernise their fund raising approach
5. And what the future looks like for the house and how you can help!
