You’re Not Alone is calling on local businesses and members of the public to bring seasonal chocolate cheer to the homeless  whom we support. You can give someone a little bit of chocolate heaven by buying an extra egg and donating it to You’re Not Alone

Many of us will spend Easter weekend with our families, and it’s easy to forget that not everyone has a place they can call home, or families who care for them. You’re Not Alone works with hundreds of Homeless people on Dame Street who can feel very isolated and lonely at these family times.

Last year You’re Not Alone received a record number of Easter eggs from generous businesses, organisations, and individuals, all of which were distributed to the homeless and they even had eggs left over which was donated to the children’s wards in Beaumont Hospital young people and women with children across their projects, and this year they are hoping to do the same. 

After the success of the Christmas Shoebox Appeal, Martina from Baldoyle Auto Centre has agreed to be a drop off point for the Easter Egg Appeal.  We will be collecting eggs until 24th March 2016
