DUBLIN, IRELAND, December 26, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Artists from across Ireland came together on the night of 17 December to raise funds in aid of Sharing is Caring Dublin 24, enabling the Tallaght community group to continue looking after the homeless and people in need.
“Artists United Against Homelessness," the first fundraiser held in aid of the voluntary group, raised 3,145 euros with donations still coming in. The musical and dance fusion was produced by the Scientology Community Centre in Firhouse and was featured as part of The Stephen Leeson Show.
The highlight of the night was a personal interview with Linda Shortt Maritza, the Aylesbury woman who, seven years ago, started taking care of one person in need and expanded this gentle gesture of humanity to a community initiative now helping over 140 people on a weekly basis.
Since March this year, Linda and her team of volunteers have been on the streets of Tallaght every week providing hot meals, packaged foods, toiletries and warm clothes to people in need.
