The NCBI Tree of Light at Dublin Airport has been a beacon of light and hope since it’s inception in 1997. Once again this year, Dublin Airport has given NCBI permission to position the Tree of Light in pride of place at the arrivals roundabout beside Corbalis House. Almost one million people using Dublin Airport this Christmas cannot fail to see the 50-foot tall tree adorned with 2,000 bulbs and the sponsors’ name on the adjacent digital display as they pass.

Sponsor a bulb and Get Your Name in Lights

Your company can get its name in lights when it sponsors a bulb from NCBI. Each bulb costs €500, which covers the cost of including your companies name on the digital display unit adjacent to the tree and a direct link from our website to your companies website. The display unit will highlight the name of each company at least 3 times per hour over the duration of the project from the beginning of December.

The funds raised by your companies sponsorship will enable us to expand our services and to further our work of offering practical and meaningful support to people with sight loss.

Thanks to all of those who have supported the Tree of Light over the years. We hope to have you back on board this year and we very much welcome the support of companies that are new to the Tree of Light and the Festival of Light at Dublin Airport.
