Shamrock Rovers FC is partnering with Focus Ireland this Christmas to help the 12 Days of Christmas Voucher Appeal.

Fans are being called on to purchase vouchers that will be distributed by Focus Ireland to those they have identified as being in need of some support.

The vouchers are for Smyths Toys, Dunnes Stores, Penneys and Shamrock Rovers club shop and Focus Ireland will distribute them to those in need in advance of Christmas.

The collection runs from today Monday 27th November to Saturday 9th December 2023.

“We are delighted to partner with Focus Ireland for the 12 Days of Christmas voucher appeal,” said John Martin, CEO of Shamrock Rovers.

“Based in Tallaght village, Focus Ireland do extraordinary work in the community driving meaningful change and taking on the challenge of homelessness.”

“Christmas is a time for family, particularly children, and sadly the number of families in emergency accommodation means that Christmas is a time of great difficulty and suffering for them. Shamrock Rovers are passionate about supporting this cause and are proud to partner with Focus Ireland to try help those who have lost everything.”

“We urge those who can help with this appeal to make it a better Christmas for those less fortunate. Please support this initiative as every voucher received will make a real difference.”

“We are grateful that Shamrock Rovers has chosen to support our service and are delighted to be working in partnership with them this year on their ’12 Days of Christmas’ Voucher Appeal,” added Tara Heffernan of Focus ireland.

“Your support will directly help the people that we work with, many of whom have lost everything, and will bring them a little hope and joy this Christmas.”
