JOIN US TO VISIT THE HOMELESS
IN THE CITY CENTRE!
True happiness comes from giving time to others in need, understanding their suffering, showing we really care, looking into their eyes, and showing compassion and interest. In that way, there are no frontiers.

Our Objetive
Our objective is not merely to give material things
Our focus is to accompany them, get to know the life story of each one, make them realize they are loved and important, know their names, what they like, and their hopes
Affection and kindness are the most important part of our goal and we give something as a token of our affection and interest in them
It is a WIN WIN adventure
Not only do the homeless benefit but we (the participants) benefit much more
We are aware that we cannot change the reality of their lives but troubles shared are troubles halved, and joys shared are multiple!
We have been able to verify that «the doors of happiness open outwards»

Atypical Sunday
- Meeting Point is at 12.00 noon at the entrance of Stephen´s Green Shopping Center
- We usually go down Grafton Street, O´Connell Street, The Halpenny Bridge, Henry Street, and adjoining streets looking for them
- We start speaking to them. We already know many of them
- We bring them things but often they ask us for things they really need: e.g. gloves, hats, hot drinks, runners, dry blankets…etc
- We always have a pack lunch to give them including Coca-Cola and chocolate which they really love
- Recently a donor gave us many warm jackets which we have given to them and they really appreciated them in the cold weather
Sunday’s Homeless Run
- We started this project in July 2022
- Originally we started going one Tuesday evening per month
- Since January 2023, we go every second Sunday from 12 to 2
- The plan is to bring some food and hot drinks, but the main objective is to show these people some affection and kindness by chatting with them so they know they matter
