Focus Ireland – Shine a Light Sleepout 2025

November 5, 2025

We are incredibly proud of our TY students who took part in the Focus Ireland Shine a Light Sleepout 2025, which raised an impressive €3,187 in support of Focus Ireland’s mission to end homelessness. The TY students presented the cheque to Hillary from Focus Ireland yesterday, marking a meaningful moment of solidarity and community spirit.

A heartfelt thank you to Ms Capper for her outstanding leadership of this impactful event. 

Together, we shine a light on hope. 

We would also like to extend our deepest condolences to the Focus Ireland community on the passing of their founder and president, Sr Stanislaus Kennedy. Sr. Stan founded Focus Ireland in 1985 with a simple but profound vision: that everyone has the right to a place they can call home. Her commitment to ending homelessness saw Focus Ireland grow over the years to the leading housing and homelessness charity it is today. Sr Stan’s advocacy for social justice and her deep empathy for those most marginalised are her lasting legacy.
