Capuchin Day Center


It was great that Pat Kenny used his radio programme on December 14, 2011 to highlight the great work done by Br Kevin, Teresa and all the staff and volunteers at the Capuchin Day Center on Bow Street. The work they do is truly inspirational. They feed approximately 600 people a day and give out over 1000 food parcels every Wednesday. Many of the people coming to the day center are homeless but increasingly there are also people attending who just can’t make ends meet. It has been a real honour for me to help Br Kevin and I was truly flattered that he wanted me to participate in the discussion on the show and raise the issues I have been raising for him at City Council. You can listen to the show on RTE by clicking HERE but most importantly you can make a donation to Br Kevin by clicking on www.homeless.ie
