We need companies, clubs, teams and
schools to Sing for Simon this Christmas.
We need you.
Hold a carol service in your office, factory, school, community
center, sports club or local pub this December. The funds that
you raise will go directly towards helping individuals, families
and children in your community that are homeless or at risk of
homelessness.
Colleagues, classmates, sports and social committees, CSR
Teams, senior management and entire companies, clubs and
schools are needed to take a stand in the fight against
homelessness. Together, we can make a difference.

4 ways to fight homelessness without even leaving
your office, clubhouse, factory or school.
1. Hold a carol service.
We’ll provide you with t-shirts and collection buckets.
2. Film your event.
Show the world your hidden talents! Post your video online
and encourage your customers and suppliers to get
involved or make a donation to your event*.
3. Double up.
Ask your company to show their support by matching
whatever funds you raise.
4. High 5 your CEO.
Is your business in a position to turbo charge our fund
raising with a generous donation of about €5k?
Dust off the Santa hats and mistletoe! Mulled
wine and the possibility of office romance will
bring the crowds in!
Have some fun! Call out a competitor
business, school or club in your video!
Challenge them to a sing-off or see
who can raise the most funds!
Companies can save valuable hours
normally spent sourcing and sending
Christmas gifts to clients by making this
(tax deductible) donation in lieu of gifts.
