Local girl Caoimhe Donoher is making a real difference in Vietnam with the help of Rosie & Jim.

Initially supporting communities in need via welfare, teaching, healthcare or community development.

Heartfelt Thanks For Another Year Of Your Kind Support

The people who attend the Centre -

Every person needs to belong and have a place where they are respected and have their basic needs met in a caring and non-judgemental way. For most people this is where they call home and in an ideal world, families can share the normal ups and downs of life in privacy behind their own hall door. Sadly some people must spend their days trying to find shelter from the weather, a place to rest and prepare before going out to face the day. Their most basic needs are access to toilet facilities, somewhere to wash and change their clothes, decent hot meals, someone to interact with. Many people lack what most of us take for granted and have no security as to where they will lay their heads that night. While this is tragic for adults, it is heart breaking for families with children who are forced to move from place to place with no stability as to their living conditions.

Meet Jack Fenlon, an incredible 18-year-old athlete from Ballybrittas, whose life revolves around the track and field.
Jack's ultimate dream? To represent his country at the Olympics and secure a professional contract. His dedication is unmatched, training 10 times a week, running twice a day on most days, and hitting the gym.
This passion for running runs deep in his family, starting when he was just 8 years old, following in his father's footsteps.
Jack's journey is taking an exciting turn as he heads to Villanova University on an athletics scholarship. Under the guidance of the legendary Marcus O'Sullivan, a former world champion, Jack aims to carve a brilliant career ahead.

"I’d like to thank Rosie and Jimmy for the sponsorship which will certainly help me progress to a senior athlete and with my future goals!" - Jack Fenlon

We, at Rosie & Jim, are thrilled to support Jack in his quest for greatness. While we've proudly sponsored his journey, let's focus on the incredible future that awaits this young athlete.

Susan O’Keeffe has Motor Neurone Disease, a progressive condition that affects how messages are sent to the muscles.  She can’t speak any more and has very limited mobility; she can type with one finger. Even though she has a very serious illness and is facing life’s end far too early, her focus is on helping others.  She has generously offered to help Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services to raise funds for the build and fit-out of 36 new single, state-of-the-art, palliative care bedrooms at the Hospice in Harold’s Cross.  

We received a remarkable letter from Susan, telling us her amazing story, and the incredible benefit the Hospice at Blackrock is to her and other’s in a similar place to her.

We, at Rosie & Jim, were humbled to be able to donate €250 to the Hospice for these crucial building works.  

Rosie & Jim are delighted to share they have donated €1000 to Dublin Simon Community.

This fantastic charity works to prevent and address homelessness in Dublin, Kildare, Wicklow, Meath, Louth, Cavan and Monaghan. They provide services at all stages of homelessness and enable people to move to a place they can call home.
