On Tuesday December 2nd we invited all Arcadia students who are studying in Ireland to participate in #GivingTuesday. Our support officers in both Cork and Galway opened their offices to students to call in and donate items of food and clothing. Tea and Coffee were available in the Dublin office for students who came in to donate. All donations which were collected have been sent to the Simon Community. The Simon Community is a nationwide Irish charity that works to prevent and address homelessness in Ireland. They do fantastic job in helping and supporting the homeless in transitioning into independent living and assist in providing permanent supported housing.
