Gateway Cup

 The Gateway Cup Silent Auction is raising vital funds in support of the Irish American Partnership, helping to create brighter futures for young people across Ireland through education.

The Irish American Partnership works to deepen the connection between Ireland and America through targeted investment in communities across the island of Ireland, with a particular focus on ensuring young people have the resources and opportunities they need to learn, grow and reach their full potential.

Every euro raised through our silent auction will go directly towards supporting the Partnership’s work and disadvantaged education across Ireland.

We have an incredible selection of prizes generously donated by our supporters – from unique sporting memorabilia and experiences to hospitality, travel and much more.

Our goal is simple: to raise as much as we can for a meaningful cause.

So whether you have your eye on a particular prize or simply want to show your support, place a bid, get involved and help us make an impact.

Every bid counts. Every euro makes a difference. 

The mission of the Irish American Partnership is to to deepen the connection between the people of Ireland and America through targeted investment across the island, honoring our heritage by educating and empowering Ireland’s youth.


Our vision is a peaceful and equitable Ireland where every young person has the resources they need to learn and to grow.

We work to connect Irish students, schools, and organisations with our passionate supporters who want to help.
We empower the next generation by equipping teachers and community leaders with the resources they need to educate and inspire.
We invest in the people, culture, and ideas that build a peaceful and prosperous Ireland, one that preserves the Irish way of life we cherish while also creating a more inclusive and equitable society for all.
We strengthen the global Irish community by linking the diaspora back to Ireland, North and South.
We value transparency and efficiency, showing where each dollar is spent and the impact you have.
