You Get a Lot. You Give a Lot Too.

Our colleagues are passionate about supporting the causes that matter most to them, from local initiatives to large-scale events.

Through our Begin Together programme, we empower colleagues to fundraise and volunteer for the charities close to their hearts. Each year, they can take one day of paid leave to volunteer and apply for matched fundraising, up to set limits.

Together, Bank of Ireland colleagues contribute over 1,000 volunteer days each year, raising millions of euro through charitable efforts.
