Stampify #NotALONEChallenge supporting ALONE
Donation protected
Ireland is going through unprecedented times at the moment. This means putting our country first by self-isolating as much as possible to contain the spread of COVID-19. A consequence of this is reduced time spent with friends and family, which is a problem particularly for the elderly who are cocooning at this time.
Traditionally Stampify provides meals to children in their place of education in the developing world. With the pandemic our country is facing at the moment, our team wanted to bring some of the impact we have to Ireland and raise money for the most vulnerable here.
We have created the #NotALONEChallenge as we want to give people an opportunity to share some of their favourite memories of times spent with friends and family, while also supporting older people who are experiencing loneliness during this time.
For this fundraiser we have partnered with ALONE, who are Ireland's leading charity in support of older people. All money raised will be donated to ALONE, and will be used to support the elderly through their day-to-day services as well as their COVID-19 specific response projects.
To complete the #NotALONEChallenge:
1. Share your favourite throwback from your Instagram archive to your story using #NotALONEChallenge
2. Support ALONE at gofundme.com/f/notalonechallenge to help members of the elderly experiencing isolation during this difficult time
3. Share a screenshot of your donation and tag 3 friends to nominate them to complete the challenge
Thank you for your support.
