With just one week to go until their third annual Daffodil Day fundraiser which takes place next Friday 20 March, from 7:00am to 8:00pm at 82 Park St, Dundalk, Dundalk-based digital marketing agency ZOMA has officially set a bold fundraising target of €20,000 for the Irish Cancer Society

Following the massive success of their 2025 event, which raised over €16,000, the ZOMA team is doubling down on their commitment to high-impact community support.

This year's "1300KM for Daffodil Day" challenge has already seen a surge in interest, with the majority of the 20-minute fitness slots already booked out by local businesses and individuals eager to take part in the rooftop event at 82 Park Street.

The core of the "1300KM for Daffodil Day" challenge is that throughout the day, groups of participants will collectively cover the equivalent distance from Dundalk to Copenhagen using erg machines such as three stationary bikes, one rowing machine, and one ski-erg.

ZOMA says that this collaborative effort allows local teams of five to take part in 20-minute intervals, ensuring the machines keep moving from dawn until dusk to hit the 1300KM target.

ZOMA has announced an exciting collaboration with global sportswear brand Macron, who have supplied custom-designed Daffodil Day jerseys for all participants. This partnership ensures that every person taking to the machines will look the part and feel like a team while contributing to the collective goal.

Fueling the effort on the rooftop, Dundalk’s own Lá Eile coffee truck will be on-site throughout the day. They will be providing premium refreshments to keep energy levels high for the participants and supporters as they clock up the kilometers.

"The response this year has been nothing short of phenomenal," said David Kieran, Managing Director of ZOMA. "Setting a €20,000 target is ambitious, but seeing the slots fill up so quickly and having huge brands  get behind us gives us huge confidence. We aren't just looking to hit a distance, we're looking to make a huge donation to the Irish Cancer Society."

Corporate Support & Branding Opportunities While fitness slots are filling up quickly, ZOMA is still welcoming corporate sponsors to help them bridge the gap to their €20,000 goal.

For a minimum donation of €200, local businesses can secure a spot on the event picture wall and high-visibility backdrops, ensuring significant brand exposure across ZOMA’s high-traffic social media channels.
