Dublin Simon Community

Thank You for Singing For Simon This Christmas

Use your Voice to End Homelessness

Our carol singing activities are an extremely important part of our fundraising throughout the year and essential in helping us fund our services.

Have a look at the Busking for Simon tab with a bunch of our favourite clips from past years.

Each year ‘Sing for Simon’ brings together over 100 groups and choirs who sing Christmas carols and songs in numerous shopping centres and across Dublin.

Thanks to the generosity and goodwill of our supporters it has grown into an annual fundraising campaign with the 24 Hour Carolathon on Grafton Street; plus many other carolling locations in the lead up to Christmas.

Dates for the diary

  • Keep an eye out for the date of our 24 Hour Carolathon on Grafton Street – we are looking for all the support we can get on the day so please come and visit us as a break from your Christmas shopping!
  • Ryan family and celebrity buskers singing for over 40 years on Grafton Street, 24 December
  • Various city centre and shopping centre locations are also available

Do you sing in a choir, a group or even in the shower? We would love you to join our campaign for 2013.
If you would like to sing your heart out or give a helping hand shaking a bucket; please call the Fundraising Office on 01 6715551 to get involved!
