Shine A Light on Child Homelessness
Right now in Ireland, more than 5,000 children are homeless. Families are living in emergency accommodation, children are growing up without a safe place to call their own, and their futures are being put on hold.
On Friday 10 October, people across Ireland came together, from students to business leaders, organisations and entire communities. Thank you to all who took part, please keep sharing your fundraising page so your support can go even further.
It's not too late to organise your own sleepout. Every euro raised helps provide life changing services that move families from crisis to stability. Together, we can make sure there is no child without a home.
Focus Ireland’s Shine A Light, proudly supported by Bord Gáis Energy.
