The Geneva Literary Aid Society was originally conceived with the cheerful goal of marking the fictional centenary of James Joyce’s masterpiece Ulysses set on June 16, 1904, partly inspired by the memory of Joyce’s brief sojourn in Geneva a month before he died.
The organisation has become a loyal and valued partner of the Edith Wilkins Street Children Foundation, India. A number of concerts have been organised by GLAS to aid the foundation, and have been a huge success www.theglas.org
Lotus Child – Caring for the Street Children of India
Lotus Child was founded in 2005 by Alannah and Anne-Marie Smyth, having witnessed first hand the horror, degradation and deprivation of life on the streets for young boys and girls. With support from friends, family and colleagues they formed Lotus Child within the existing charity of The Louis and Zelie Martin Foundation (CHY 12491) to work to alleviate this suffering. Run entirely by volunteers, Lotus Child has two dedicated committees working with our supporters and donors to improve the lives of these children.
At ESB, we are committed, through our corporate social responsibility (CSR) programmes and sponsorship, to investing in individuals and communities right across the country www.esb.ie
In 1997, during the commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the great Irish famine, health service staff in Cork and Kerry established SHARP to help relieve poverty both abroad and at home.

The aim of our aid programme is to reduce poverty, hunger and humanitarian need, with a particular focus on sub-Saharan Africa. By supporting long term development and providing humanitarian assistance in over eighty countries, on behalf of the Irish people, we are helping to build better futures for some of the world’s poorest communities www.irishaid.ie
PWB is a volunteer run charity that believes in the transforming power of learning and performing the arts.
Performers Without Borders (PWB) works towards giving vulnerable children the opportunity to explore their potential. We understand that, through teaching performance skills an individual’s learning, creativity and team working skills are developed. Further, it helps to build confidence, develop empowerment and overcome social barriers. PWB’s methodology of following the tradition of travelling show, and the principle of fostering long-term relationships, is ideal in not only engaging children, but also ensuring community trust in the project.
