They are taking donations on GoFundMe (link HERE) and the GoFundMe reads:

"As we approach Conor's birthday and one year anniversary, Shane Duffy, Conor's brother and I, Kate O'Sullivan, Conor's close friend are taking a leap on Saturday October 19th. We'll be jumping out of a plane to raise necessary funds for Pieta House, a charity close to our hearts.

Conor tragically passed away on October 8th 2023. Conor was one of a kind, an incredible person, kind, caring and always there for his family and friends who he adored immensely. Through this fundraiser, we want to raise funds to support Pieta House in their mission to save lives. We also hope to raise awareness about men's mental health and encourage people to talk about their own mental health. Every donation, big or small, and every share will help make a difference and honour the memory of Conor."
