Story

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who so generously donated and supported the Irish Funds Team in both Dublin and Cork for the Shine a Light Night Sleep Out last Friday. We have been overwhelmed by the amazing support, generosity and good wishes from industry and work colleagues, friends and family both here in Ireland and overseas.  Having heard and seen first hand on Friday night about the life-changing impact which Focus Ireland’s work is having on individuals and families across Ireland we all feel incredibly lucky to have had a chance to participate.  You have helped us to raise much needed funds which will enable Focus Ireland in their quest to eliminate homelessness. Thanks for making a difference. Lisa, Yvonne, Brian, Ronnie, Tara, Carmel, Gary, Dara, Liam, Patrick, Eoin and Pat ----- Building on our industry’s involvement last year, Irish Funds representatives are participating again in the Shine A Light Night sleep out to raise vital funds and stand in solidarity with people experiencing homelessness.  As an industry we’ve been very fortunate and want to give back to the communities we live and work in. On Friday, 15th October, a team of current and former Council members will sleep out in Dublin and Cork for the night and include Lisa Kealy, Yvonne Connolly, Brian Forrester, Ronnie Griffin, Tara Doyle, Carmel Jordan, Gary Pike, Dara Harrington, Liam Butler, Patrick O’Brien, Eoin Motherway and Pat Lardner. We are inspired by the work of Focus Ireland and want to support them by raising much needed funds as part of our participation in Shine A Light Night 2021.                                    Please help us to help them by giving whatever you can using the  Donate button. The more people that know about Focus Ireland, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing our page with your friends and family.   Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!                    Irish Funds Council
