"Ireland Is..."
This is a poem about how important home is to all of us. It is disgraceful that so many will be without a home this Christmas. We would ask you to give as generously as you can to this campaign at www.tinyurl.com/irelandis, and if you aren't in a position to donate, please share the video so it can be seen by people who are.
How did this campaign start?
On December 5th, Aidan Strangeman put up a message asking the members of popular Irish Facebook forum, OMGWACA, to contribute lines to a poem called "Ireland Is..." (based on a poem by Colm Keegan). Out of hundreds of suggestions, he collated the most popular lines and posted the poem on the forum.
The result proved to be popular and it was suggested that we should make a video with various members saying selected lines for charitable cause, and given the references to the house and home, Focus Ireland was the obvious choice.
I (foolishly) offered my skills as a video editor, and Aidan and I went about the task of gathering video contributions. We hope you enjoy the resulting video. We enjoyed making it. Most of all we hope you donate to a very worthy cause: www.tinyurl.com/irelandis
Aidan I would like to thank everyone who wrote or said a line in this poem.
We'd also like to thank Hugh Rodgers for allowing the use one of one of his compositions, "Belonging" for the soundtrack, and Emma Clarke Conway, who liaised with Focus Ireland on our behalf.
