Dillon’s family established the Foundation to prevent other families from going through what they have experienced and, in the process, to save countless lives. Every year, SADS takes 100 young lives in Ireland alone - a startling statistic that surpasses rates in many European countries. Research has shown that cardiac screening can significantly reduce the incidence of SADS. That’s why the Dillon Quirke Foundation is on a mission to:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        Deliver free cardiac screenings to young sports players (aged 12-18) in a variety of sports clubs across Ireland &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        Raise awareness of SADS &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        Reduce the incidence of SADS in Ireland&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We are a new Foundation that is off to a big start. We set up in early 2023, and used that year to plan our strategy and governance carefully, then started cardiac screening and awareness work in early 2024. We have raised over €1.5m in that time, with more in the pipeline for 2025.  Our goal is to screen 5,000 children each year, however we are on target to screen 10,000 in 2024 !&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; We are now in a position to recruit a dedicated fundraiser to ensure sustainability for the coming years. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Role Type&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is a permanent part-time role, 3 days per week (we can be flexible on days/hours).
