Gamers for Samaritans FAQs
Can I do my challenge on a different date?
Yes! Friday, 24th July (24/7) is Samaritans Awareness Day, but if that date doesn't suit you, pick a date in July that does!
Does my challenge have to be for a full 24 hours?
- Your challenge doesn't have to be 24 hours.
- Rather than going solo for a 24-hour marathon, we recommend Gamers and Crafters team up for relays with friends.
- If disrupting your routine could negatively impact your mood or wellbeing, we recommend doing your challenge for a shorter time or spreading it out over a few days.
Does my fundraising support local Samaritans branches?
Yes! All funds raised from your challenge support our Branch Development Fund, helping local Samaritans branches across Ireland be there for your community.
How much do I have to raise?
There's no minimum fundraising requirement for the challenge. You can set any fundraising goal you like.
But if you raise €250 or more, we'll send you an exclusive personalised notebook gift set!
