Get something unique for that special person in your life...or keep it yourself.
Next Week we will be launching a new Raffle to win €100 / £100 of Home heating oil that will hopefully keep you going until the weather gets warmer

5 Civic Dollars will get you an entry to the draw that we will be running in all our Civic Dollars regions in County Donegal, Waterford City & County , our new region of County Meath and the Northern Ireland projects as well.

Keep an eye out on on our announcement next week and you can already start to build up the Civic Dollars by spending time outdoors in your local parks, greenways and open spaces.

⚽💙 How would you like to support your local school and soccer club — just by getting out for a walk? 💙⚽

That’s exactly what’s now happening in Waterford.

We’ve teamed up with Waterford FC to reward everyday healthy habits in a way that directly benefits our own schools and junior clubs.

Here’s how it works 👇

🏫 Support Your School
When pupils, parents, grandparents, and supporters walk or cycle to school — or spend time outdoors — they earn Civic Dollars.
Those Civic Dollars can be donated to their school, and when the target is reached, Waterford FC will arrange a Meet the Player visit.

Imagine the excitement in the yard when that happens 🙌

⚽ Support Your Local Club
Earn Civic Dollars through physical activity and enter a draw to win a Waterford FC coaching session for a junior team of your choice, just for 5 Civic Dollars.

So every step, every walk, every training session can help strengthen grassroots football right here in Waterford.

This is about community.
It’s about healthy habits.
And it’s about backing our own.

Get active. Support local. 💙
