    We’re delighted to share that The Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation has been shortlisted for two Charity Excellence Awards 2026!

    Employer Excellence Award

    This recognition belongs to every member of Team Jack and Jill. By creating a workplace where people feel supported, valued and connected to our purpose, our team can continue delivering vital care to families across Ireland. In 2025 alone, their dedication helped us support 547 children and fund 128,196 hours of in-home nursing care and respite support.

    Jack and Jill named 2026 Finalist for the Employer Excellence Award at the Charity Excellence Awards, proudly sponsored by CCI Executive Search.

    Jack and Jill named 2026 Finalist for Fundraising Campaign of the Year at the Charity Excellence Awards, proudly sponsored by iDonate.

    Fundraising Campaign of the Year, in partnership with Life Pharmacy

    Our Walk 100km Challenge grew into a nationwide community movement, raising an incredible €143,064, which was 43% above target and enough to fund 7,948 hours of in-home nursing care and respite for Jack and Jill families.

    To be recognised by @Charities Institute Ireland for both the culture we are building within Team Jack and Jill and the impact we are creating with partners such as @Life Pharmacy means so much to us.

    These two nominations tell one shared story: when caring, committed people come together around a common purpose, families feel the difference.

    A heartfelt thank you to our employees, nurses, families, supporters, Life Pharmacy teams, campaign participants and everyone who helped make this possible.

    Congratulations to all the finalists – we look forward to celebrating with you in November!
