Following a successful fundraiser in Whelan’s at the end of April, some of Ireland’s best loved singer songwriters have come together for another gig to raise much needed funds for the Stay Human Collective.
Among them are Brian Brannigan from a lazarus soul,
Nina Hynes, Alice Jago, Arrivalists and some other luminaries of the Irish music scene including a VERY SPECIAL GUEST!
Host for the night will be Hayden Cassidy
Our Story
The Stay Human project emerged in Summer 2024 as a grassroots mutual aid initiative spanning Europe, Egypt, and Palestine. What began as emergency crowdfunding for food, water, and essential supplies for families in Jabalia, Northern Gaza, quickly evolved into something more powerful: education as a form of hope.
In September 2024, the Stay Human school was born—offering Arabic, English, Mathematics and now Science. What started as 40 students in a damaged building, has grown to 120 children in rooms that our team have made beautiful and accessible for those with special needs. As of today, around 30 of our students have been orphaned due to Israel’s relentless attacks and blockade.
Our Mission
We believe in community-led solutions built on solidarity, not charity. Our mission is three-fold:
Sustain our current school by continuing to fund our rented building and support our four dedicated teachers until formal education resumes in Gaza.
Expand our vision to create a flexible school camp with tent classrooms for different age groups, engaging 10 teachers and providing education to 180 students.
Provide essential humanitarian support by distributing food, water, baby supplies, and addressing sanitation needs based on community priorities and changing circumstances.
Beyond academic learning, these spaces provide a psychologically supportive environment where children can rebuild friendships, play, and heal.
Our Approach
As a mutual aid collective, we:
Rely on Palestinian leadership in decision-making
Respond dynamically to community needs
Distribute resources based on priority needs
Provide ongoing humanitarian support alongside education
Operate with transparency and accountability
