We are gearing up to make some noise for Pieta with our annual collection this World Suicide Prevention Day 2024. On Friday, September 13th we are asking you to get involved, have some fun and make a difference by joining our volunteers across Ireland for just a few hours to help Pieta raise funds to continue to provide our free services.

World Suicide Prevention Day, is a day which focuses our attention on the issue of suicide and reducing stigma. It is a time when we can spread a message of hope to others, being aware that others might be experiencing suicidal thoughts and provide direction to Pieta’s free lifesaving support services. This helps to create a more caring society where those who may need help feel comfortable in seeking it out from Pieta.

We are asking as many volunteers as possible to be that ray of hope for your community and shake a bucket to help fund Pieta's services while promoting suicide prevention and positive mental health.

Volunteers will work in groups of a minimum of two people, and we will provide you with the following:

  • A Pieta T-shirt

  • 1 x Bucket

  • Volunteer badge for you to wear

  • Stickers to hand out to donors

  • Business cards with Pieta’s helpline to hand out to donors

  • Information on Pieta on our services to brief each volunteer

  • Collection Permit

  • Insurance indemnity for the area of the bucket collection
