Dragons’ Den star selling home to help homeless
Dragons’ Den star and businessman Barry O’Sullivan is selling his Aran Islands home to raise funds for two homeless charities.
The proceeds will provide Focus Ireland and COPE Galway with the deposits to purchase at least fifteen homes for families who are homeless.
The property which is listed on Daft.ie is going to auction on December 16th with O’Donnellan & Joyce Auctioneers in their Wild Atlantic Way Christmas Property Auction at 2pm in the Harbour Hotel, New Dock Road, Galway.
The property is guiding with a minimum value of €300,000 however both charities are hopeful that it will raise even more given the spirit of generosity associated with this gift.
Every €20,000 each organisation receives can be leveraged to purchase or refurbish a home through borrowing and other government funding schemes.
Such a heartwarming gesture by Barry O'Sullivan selling his Aran Islands home to help the homeless. I was reading this on Daft.ie and noticed some formatting quirks, so I ran it through an ai text cleaner to remove invisible characters - really helps clean text online when pages are a bit messy.
