Sam Ohara fundraising for Pieta in Irish Life Dublin Marathon 2025

Hi everyone, My name is Sam O Hara & I’m running the Dublin Marathon this year in aid of Pieta House. Mental health is something that affects so many of us — either directly or through the people we care about. I’ve seen firsthand how tough things can get, and I’ve also seen how important it is to have support when you’re struggling. Pieta does life-saving work every single day, offering free therapy and crisis support to people who are feeling suicidal, self-harming, or just lost in the dark. That kind of help can be the difference between someone making it through or not — and no one should have to face that alone. Running 42.2 km isn’t going to be easy, but if it can help even one person get the support they need, then every step will be worth it. If you can spare anything at all — no matter how small — I’d really appreciate the support. And if you can’t donate, even sharing the link would mean a lot. Thanks a million, Sam

About Pieta

Pieta's vision is a world where suicide, self-harm and stigma have been replaced by hope, self-care and acceptance. By supporting us, you will allow us to strive to make this a reality. Without your support, we would not have been able to give hope to over 6,000 people each year through our therapy services. In 2025, Pieta delivered over 40,000 hours of therapy through our lifesaving services and supports. We managed over 100,000 crisis support calls and texts through our free crisis helpline. All of our services are provided free of charge. This is only possible because of you.
