The Dillon Quirke Foundation

intro-bg.jpg

We are a registered charity working to raise awareness of Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) and fund widespread cardiac screening for young people (aged 12-18) involved in sport.

On average, Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) takes 100 young lives in Ireland every year. Cardiac screening can help prevent SADS by identifying heart conditions at an early stage – before they cause symptoms.

 

With your help, the Foundation’s aim is to raise awareness and reduce the number of young people dying from SADS through a cardiac screening programme.

 

Our hope for Dillon’s legacy is that every young sports athlete, male and female in Ireland, will have mandatory screening for their heart.

Money Raised so far

€1,300,000

Your support of the Dillon Quirke Foundation will help us to fund a widespread cardiac screening programme for young people (aged 12-18) involved in sport. At present, we have raised in excess of €1.3m towards this aim.
