“Eveline and Dermot Dolan from Longford left a legacy to GOAL which changed the lives of a whole community.”

Their son Tiernan tells how their gift made dreams a reality as families supported built new homes, with a clean-water supply, toilet, kitchen, and fuel-saving stove.

“I had the incredible privilege of visiting Uganda and meeting the families who were re-homed thanks to GOAL. To say that this GOAL project made a difference is an understatement.

I met with a 70-year-old Grandmother who was caring for her 5 grandchildren; her own daughter had tragically died. Her life had been turned around by her new home. Her eyes literally lit up when she talked about having a dry house, a clean floor and a healthy future for her grandchildren.”

My late parents Dermot and Eveline Dolan would have been so proud of this energetic woman who never gave up hope but was so close on a few occasions. Clasping my hands, she looked into my eyes and thanked me, my parents and GOAL: “In our last home, we used to go to sleep not knowing whether the house would still be there when we woke”.  As I left her house, I felt happy and humbled all at the same time.”

Whether it be a modest or large gift; it has the power to transform lives. Will you please consider leaving a gift to GOAL in your Will?

What we do

GOAL Strategy 2025
Emergency Response
Resilient Health
Food & Nutrition Security
Sustainable, Resilient, Inclusive World

From Crisis to Resilience

Humanitarian crises are increasing in number, magnitude, and complexity across the globe. The international community is increasingly recognising that more must be done to move vulnerable populations exposed to disaster hazards beyond humanitarian crisis and to achieve greater resilience. Key to this is strengthening local capacities by stabilising and supporting local systems and populations to move from crisis to survival and onto greater resilience.

GOAL Strategy 2025

Conflict, instability and climate change have created unprecedented levels of need.

GOAL's Emergency Response programme takes an integrated approach, with its work focused on saving lives, alleviating human suffering and building resilience for the future.

Goal 1: Emergency Response

Long-term health inequalities need urgent commitment and intervention.

From emergency assistance to sustainable development. Resilient Health works on two fronts - meeting the challenge of chronic health emergencies as well as taking a systems-based approach to help communities build a healthier future.

Goal 2: Resilient Health

Even today, 800 million people across the world do not have the food they need. 

Food poverty is increasing, with the situation fuelled by rapid population growth, increased conflict, displacement and climate change. GOAL is focused on innovative and sustainable ways to achieve food and nutrition security for the most vulnerable. 

Goal 3: Food & Nutrition Security

The world is increasingly connected. Action is no longer limited by traditional boundaries or borders.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for us all; addressing poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice.

GOAL links its Global Citizenship programme with the SDGs and is helping people by fostering global citizenship, GOAL is helping people understand that how we live and act can, and does, make a difference.
