We appreciate your interest in the 34th Dublin Charity Cup! The Dublin Charity Cup is hosted by the Dublin Soccer League in cooperation with the City of Dublin.  In the past thirty-four years, more than $825,000 has been donated to charity. In 2023, just over 145 teams from all areas of Ohio participated in the tournament resulting in a donation of $35,000 to 8 programs in central Ohio.  We are proud to have donated to Second and Seven, One Dublin, Feed the Kids – Columbus, Festa, Ronald McDonald House – Columbus, St. Jude Research Hospital, Dublin Neighborhood Bridges and Ark Childcare Center.  For 2024 we will be contributing to multiple charities that benefit children and our local community. Stay tuned for more details on this soon!
