BOHEMIANS HAVE LAUNCHED their annual Christmas Toy Drive for the benefit of children in Direct Provision.
The pledge is to donate a €30 toy to every child living in a Direct Provision centre this Christmas, and the Toy Drive has raised more than €400,000 since it launched in 2018.
The ambition, says Bohemians, is to give every child in these centres a “sense of belonging.”
This year’s target, in conjunction with Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland (MASI), is to raise a total of €55,000.
