Crowdfund Dublin – Spring 2025

Dublin City Council working with community fundraising platform Spacehive, has launched an exciting opportunity for local residents to fundraise and deliver projects that matter to them called ‘Crowdfund Dublin City‘.

Dublin City Council has a fund of €300, 000, and is looking to invest in projects that will enhance green spaces, create colourful, vibrant and inclusive public spaces, or support sustainable communities and environmental initiatives.

Through the fund, community groups, social enterprises, local charities and individuals with community support could potentially receive a pledge of up to 50% of their crowdfunding target, capped at €5000.

The Spring 2025 round is now open with a deadline of Wednesday the 30th April to have projects fully costed, any relevant permissions in place and the project page created on Spacehive page, which is accessed via https://www.spacehive.com/movement/dublincity/about.

In order to help with your proposal and best support an application for funding, two workshops are being organised, the first online and the second, in-person. To attend you will need to pre-register.

Workshop 1: Online – Tuesday 25th February, 3 – 4pm

Workshop 2: In-person – Thursday 27^th February, 6 – 7.30pm in Civic Offices, Wood Quay.
