Hi everyone
We have our Idonate attached to our organization. We are not in a position to have a website at the moment due to financial cost. So until we have more money in unfortunately we have to use Idonate.

All monies raised have gone into keeping our youth club open and our overheads.

We have to pay for Garda vetting for our volunteers, rental for our premises and insurance is our biggest outlay at the moment. So if you could share this for us we would be delighted and grateful. Every little helps as Tesco says 😊

Thanks a million folks 🙏❤️

Last night I had the privilege of meeting Mary Lou Mc Donald in Enniscorthy.

I discussed our future plans for the Dreambig foundation and how we are going to build an independent disability support service for the south east.

I would like to thank people who supported my discussion with Mary Lou, and I am making further arrangements to meet Mary Lou in private to discuss our future plans which will happen over the next 18 months or so. We need our local politicians to get behind providing a better quality of life for people with additional needs and for their families.

It was lovely to speak with other Sinn Fein councillors from the south east and plans have been made to discuss our plans with other organisations based in the south east.

A new report has shown that family carers continue to face significant financial pressure, inadequate access to services, poor health and wellbeing and experience loneliness.

The following businesses in New Ross who have created something special in our community by sponsoring us

Raymondo's New Ross
McDonald’s New Ross
Domino's Pizza New Ross

We greatly appreciate your support and your continued support to our youth club.

You have made a huge difference in our children's lives and their families.

Hello Everyone,

We are excited to welcome you to the The Caterpillar Minis Dreambig Foundation.

This is a big milestone in the Dreambig Foundation SE CLG and Rainbow Youth Club Dreambig Foundation, this will be our second youth club to open in a year.

Dreambig foundation is the first to open a completely independent Youth Service for children with additional needs in Co. Wexford.
And we are super excited to open our second youth club in Newbawn just outside New Ross in September.

This youth club will facilitate 4 to 12 age groups, split into two groups minis and juniors. We will be maintaining our New Ross youth club and expanding that service as well as our Newbawn minis and junior group. Today we have been inundated with emails regarding our enrollment process. Spaces are limited and we have a few places gone already in both groups.

If you require any further information please email Becky at [email protected] she will be delighted to answer any questions you may have.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Raymondo's New Ross for once again supporting our Rainbow Youth Club Dreambig Foundation by generously providing pizzas and family boxes.

The children were absolutely delighted and really excited to enjoy the treat together. It made the occasion even more special as we celebrated Sophie’s fantastic achievement in the Garda Youth Awards.

Your continued support and generosity are greatly appreciated and help create memorable experiences for our young people. Thank you for helping us mark this important milestone in such a positive and enjoyable way.
