Google’s philanthropic arm, Google.org, is to provide Barnardos with a €1 million grant to make the internet safer for children in Ireland. Sundar Pichai, Google’s CEO, made the announcement today during a visit to St Patrick’s National School in Ringsend.

Google also unveiled its Be Internet Legends programme, which will provide online safety resources to those who are unable to access the workshops or feel additional supports are needed.
The grant will enable a four-year education programme to roll out in 1,000 schools nationwide. Google and Barbardos plan to hold 4,000 workshops and reach more than 75,000 students.

“It is our hope that through this partnership, we will equip children, parents and teachers with the skills, resources and knowledge to ensure they can safely explore and experience the positive opportunities the internet offers – all while minimising the risks.”
