Dublin charity Inner City Helping Homeless have taken over Mountjoy Square Park today for their annual Christmas donation drive.
Evolving from their Fill a Luas initiative, the Fill a Christmas truck campaign will see up to 15,000 people who are homeless or living in poverty.
The charity will be in Mountjoy Square until 7pm this evening, and are encouraging the public to come along and show their support by donating a Christmas shoebox.
There are also fun events taking place, and supports for homeless people or those affected by homelessness.
CEO and Dublin City councillor Anthony Flynn said: "Our Fill A Christmas truck event will support up to 15,000 people who are homeless and living in direct poverty.
"Last year near 20,000 presents where donated for redistribution and this year we are hoping for the same. A massive operation is in place at Mountjoy Square Park we have Santa’s Grotto, haircuts, food trucks and much more.
"Christmas is a time for giving and we are encouraging the public to get on board with us and support those who are less fortunate. If you would like to donate our truck will be in place manned by volunteers from 7am - 7pm at the park.”
