On Friday October 21st a team of Avolon staff will be braving the elements and spending the night outside to raise awareness and funds for FOCUS Ireland.

Avolon and its CARE committee have generously agreed to match fund all donations received up to €5,000, so your donation will go twice as far.

Established in 1985, Focus Ireland has become an expert organisation in moving families, young people and individuals out of homelessness in Ireland and helping those who are at risk of becoming homeless to avoid it.

Homelessness is currently a huge problem with over 6,000 people homeless today in Ireland, this is the highest number ever recorded. One in three using homeless services in Ireland is a child.

We really hope that you will help support us in our sleep-out and raise much needed funds for Focus Ireland.
