Background: There was a discussion on Boards.ie on this newspaper article

"Helpline for male domestic abuse victims struggles to cope amid pandemic surge: Calls to Men’s Aid Ireland are being missed amid 35% spike in level of demand"

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/social-affairs/helpline-for-male-domestic-abuse-victims-struggles-to-cope-amid-pandemic-surge-1.4512995 .

One poster posted:

"I’ve just donated €50, how many others will join me now?

Plenty on here that we should be able to raise a bit of money."

A second posted:

"I will donate 30.

I have also asked those in my house to as well. It's sad to think of people trying to get help and nobody answering the phone."

I thought a way that might increase the total raised was to have a specific fundraiser and to have a specific thread to highlight it. Please delete or move the posts back to another thread, if having a specific thread is not acceptable.

Disclaimer: This is an unofficial fundraiser started by a single Boards user. I have no connection with this charity

Some people may also like to support one of the groups helping female victims. One list is here:
