Every week in the Her.ie offices we are inundated with requests from people asking us to help them promote their charity events. While every cause is worthwhile, unfortunately we can’t get around to all of them and so for that reason, we have decided to put together some of these events from around the country. Every week, we will feature five events you should get behind or get involved with over the next few months. There are tonnes of amazing organisations in this country, let’s help them out. 1. Tonabrucky Challenge This year the  Tonabrucky Challenge is running for OTRA. The 6km fun run which is now in year 4 and raises money for a nominated charity each year. OTRA, who is working without funding to help people who are struggling with mental health and personal issues, are a non profit organization promotes the self-sufficiency of people by engaging them in walking and running as a means to build confidence, strength and self esteem.

There are tonnes of great causes that people are donating to for the Flora's Mini-Marathon and this is just one of them. We received this lovely email from Katie is who running the marathon with her mother. "I am trying to raise as much money as I can for the Bone Marrow for Leukaemia Trust Ireland by doing the Flora Women's Mini Marathon. My mum who had leukaemia two years ago (along with a bone marrow transplant and relapse) and she is doing it with me which makes me even more motivated to raise money for the fantastic work this charity do in St James Hospital, Dublin so if you could emotion my just giving page I would owe you so much."
