Joe Stack fundraising for Irish Red Cross

The Road to Dublin Starts Here In October 2026, I’ll take on a big challenge — the Irish Life Dublin Marathon — 26.2 miles on foot, in aid of the incredible work of the Irish Red Cross. This run isn’t just about finish times or personal goals. It’s about people. It’s about families in crisis, communities hit by disaster, and individuals who rely on the Irish Red Cross for support, dignity, and hope — both here in Ireland and across the world. Every training run, every early morning, every tough mile is part of my road to Dublin — and every step I take is powered by the generosity of those who choose to support this cause. I’ve pledged to raise €1,500, and every euro genuinely makes a difference: •Helping communities recover after emergencies. •Supporting vulnerable people and families. •Providing humanitarian aid where it’s needed most. If you’re in a position to donate, I would be massively grateful. If not, even sharing this page helps more than you know. Your support — in any form — keeps me going when the legs get heavy and the road gets long. Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Every mile will carry your support with it. Joe.
