The Aisling Irish Volunteers for the Homeless are an active and dedicated group who strive to help feed people experiencing homelessness throughout New York City.
The idea of setting up this group came about when Cardinal Tomás Ó Fiaich visited New York. He suggested that the Irish people give back to the city to show thanks for the success and opportunities they had experienced since immigrating to New York.
Founded in 1990 during our early days as Tír na Nóg, the Aisling Irish Volunteers for the Homeless are our longest running program! Over the years, many volunteers have come together for this importance cause. Their commitment reflects the generous and caring nature of our community.
