Every action matters. As members of Greystones, we have the power to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people by making informed, ethical choices and raising our collective voice.
Note: We are also very conscious of the current and ongoing genocide happening in Sudan, and urge all to also be informed about this crisis. This hunger affects hundreds of thousands, half of whom are children. Please take some time to learn more about the conflict through this video, on the UN on the WFP's website. You can also help by donating to the Red Cross, UNICEF, and Save the Children.
Join us in front of the Greystones DART station on Wednesday and Friday mornings from 7.30AM to 8AM.
IPSC Solidarity March: we will be going to the Solidarity March on Saturday November 29th at 1PM and hosting a Solidarity Gathering in Greystones at the same time.
