Give today to provide food, warmth and hope for people experiencing homelessness

As the nights grow colder, many people will spend Christmas without a roof over their head. For someone sleeping on the streets, even the smallest act of kindness can mean everything.

At Merchants Quay, your support offers warmth and safety – whether it’s a hot meal, a shower or clean clothes. Your gift this Christmas can help someone find comfort on a cold night, and remind them they are not forgotten.

Every winter, men and women come to Merchants Quay in need of food, shelter and a kind word. It is often their first step towards safety and stability.

With your help, we can be there for everyone who walks through our doors this Christmas and throughout the cold months ahead.

 “With MQI, I can come in and get a cup of tea and something to eat. I can come in from the cold.”

 “Our clients live with the pain and trauma of homelessness every day, but Christmas really magnifies it. That’s why your compassion is life-changing.”

 “I’ll sit on Grafton Street and see families walking up and down. It’s a reminder of everything I’ve lost. Christmas is really tough.”
