The One In Four organization was in financial distress and was in danger of having to shut their doors when the band and their manager Paul McGuinness stepped up to the plate with a donation of 40,000 Euros (a little over $46,000 US Dollars). 

The band�s management issued this statement, "The members of U2 and their manager have offered to provide to One In Four 40,000 Euros (US $46,360) to enable this wonderful organization to continue its vital and important work for a further month, while the government gets it together to do the right thing."
