Our Work
Strengthening the places at the heart of the grassroots game
Across Ireland, communities are already doing the hard work. Volunteers raise money. Clubs develop projects. Families fundraise. Public investment is secured.
GIFF brings philanthropy alongside that effort.
We mobilise additional philanthropic investment for grassroots football facilities, supporting investment where there is genuine need and the potential for lasting impact.
Our Focus
Grassroots & Community Football
Supporting investment in the facilities that serve grassroots football and the clubs and communities at the heart of the game.
Lasting Community Investment
Supporting facilities that respond to genuine need and can provide lasting value for football and the communities they serve.
Participation & Inclusion
Supporting facilities that respond to the needs of the people participating in football and the continued growth and development of the grassroots game.
How we Work
GIFF is responsible for the philanthropic funds it raises and for ensuring those funds are applied in support of its purpose.
Funding priorities and decisions are informed by evidence of need, expected impact and relevant football, community and technical expertise. GIFF remains accountable for the stewardship and allocation of the funds entrusted to it.
Philanthropy does not replace public funding or community effort. It adds another source of investment to the future of grassroots football.
