SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Get involved...for an exceptionally good cause!

Following hot on the heels, so to speak, of the highly successful Pigs on Parade initiative, Hares on the March is now set to offer your business a vibrant and original platform to brand, promote and benefit from over the next 12 months and beyond.

Hare sculptures, hand painted by a range of artists, will adorn our public spaces in Dublin from January until March 2016. 3 foot tall hares on 4 foot plinths will be popping up in galleries, hotels, shopping centres and individual landmark shops.

IT ALL STARTS NOW! We invite you to get involved. It’s all for an exceptionally good cause. Hares on the March is a fundraiser for the Jack & Jill Children’s Foundation, which offers help, hope and respite to the families of children with severe neurological development issues as well as End of Life care for children up to the age of 4.


The Adoption Option

Choose a hare; put your name, mission and logo on the plinth. Then put it on permanent display in your boardroom, canteen or reception area for the adoption fee of €5,000

The Adoption Option lets you view and select one or more of your favourite hares, designed by one of our talented artists, and adopt on a full-time basis. As well as having your name and logo applied to the custom made plaque that is affixed to the 4ft tall plinth that your adopted exhibit is proudly positioned on, you will ultimately take ownership of your chosen piece of art, when the curtain comes down.

You can take advantage of a range of other benefits if required, these include:
