This fundraising breakfast will help shape the next generation of women in Ireland
A morning of talks and discussions, celebrating the past, present and future women of Ireland, The Shona Project's 500x500 is a space to connect, reflect and step into something meaningful for 2026.
On Wednesday, February 4, The Shona Project launches the 2026 500×500 fundraising campaign, supporting a community built on one simple belief; that when women come together, girls feel the impact.
Hosted by Miriam O’Callaghan, with breakfast, conversations and stories in House Dublin, the fundraising event is a space to connect, reflect and step into something meaningful for 2026, while welcoming new members to the 500×500 community of funders.
The fundraising breakfast will recognise three women whose work continues to shape Ireland for women and girls; academic, activist and trailblazer Ailbhe Smyth, entrepreneur, educator and taboo-buster Laura Dowling and TedX speaker, survivor and future leader Destiny Ayo Vaughan.”This isn’t just an event,” says The Shona Project. “It’s a space to meet women who care about walking beside girls as they grow and learn. It’s a chance to feel the heart of a community that’s already changing lives. And it might just be the moment you choose to become part of it for 2026.”
