Irish Americans Funding Homegrown Futures | Dublin News

Mairead McNamara, former food marketing powerhouse behind Kerrygold, is now turning her Irish roots into a mission: connecting successful Irish Americans with education opportunities back home. As a key player at the Irish American Partnership, she’s helping donors—many of whom came to the U.S. through historic programs—fund students from primary school to veterinary school, ensuring every dollar goes directly to those in need. Since 1986, the Partnership has raised over $63 million, with $3 million last year alone invested in education and community growth. Based in New York and working with a Boston team, McNamara finds deep fulfillment in this role, bridging continents and generations through generosity.
