Care and Compassion in Action.

Established as a charity over 180 years ago to relieve the horrors of poverty and deprivation in the Republic of Ireland on a strictly non-denominational basis, Protestant Aid treats all genuine calls for help equally, regardless of religious, ethnic or social backgrounds.

The Charity dispenses every cent received from subscribers in grant aid, an efficiency unsurpassed by few if any charities.

Its primary activities include:

• grants to alleviate poverty or distress

• annuities for the elderly

• allowances for heating/energy costs

• school expenses

• second-level education grants

• third-level loans

• Sheltered Housing and Nursing Care for over 200 elderly people through our sister companies, The Brabazon Trust and St. John’s House
