Foróige Societies in colleges are proving a massive hit with former members, current volunteers and people who have never even been involved with the organisation prior to joining the society! So far almost €2,000 euro has been raised for Foróige during RAG Week in Athlone, there has been a Table Quiz in NUIG, we’ve received a donation from NUIG Engineering Society and we’ve also held a successful book sale in Athlone IT. These societies are full of fun and there are already big plans underway for 2014 with a nationwide event for all college societies in the pipeline.

I first got involved in Forόige back in 2007 at the age of 16. The Templeport Forόige Club in Co.Cavan was being set up and I was elected as its Public Relations Officer. That year we entered the Citizenship programme. That’s when I truly discovered a passion for Forόige. I really saw their famous slogan ‘Empowering youth, enriching communities’ come to life. We were a group of young, determined and enthusiastic people who were going to make a difference in our community. After reaching the finals and winning one of the 20 prizes, my passion was ignited!

Hi there! My name is Breda Maguire and I am the newly appointed Alumni Officer for Foróige. I worked for 6 years as the Foróige Regional Youth Officer in Westmeath. Wondering what the Alumni initiative is all about? Our aims are to reconnect past members, volunteers, staff and supporters of Foróige.
