Hi all!
All intelligent people know that wars do not solve problems, they merely create new ones! One Russian dictator thinks, though, that by killing people and occupying another country he will gain. What a sad tragedy!
|
|
|
|
Now if you think you can’t do anything, then keep reading, because you can make your opinion known and you can also help the people whose lives are blown into bits by this idiotic violence.
|
|
1) Today, Saturday 05 March, a protest will take place outside the GPO to condemn Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. It will start at 14:00. www.thejournal.ie/protest-ukraine-russia-gpo-5701701-Mar2022/ Support this cause, normal people, like you and me, need our support.
|
|
2) Social Media (Facebook and Twitter) and other independent media outlets have now been blocked by Russia to stop their people from finding out what is really going on. If you have friends or family in Russia help them to get access to information about Ukraine.
|
 |
 |
|
3) Collections of items that will be shipped to Ukraine (or Poland) are bound to fail because they have a tendency to accumulate the wrong items and the logistic of getting it to the right people in need is just not there. So, don’t donate items, instead donate money to professional organisations who have the infrastructure to get the needed items and bring it to the right people. The Irish Red Cross is a good organisation to donate to and their donation page is here donate.redcross.ie/

In Ireland the coming two weeks will be VERY busy! This week the International Women’s Day will take place on 08 March and there are LOTS of events taking place. The coming week is also Enterprise Week. And in the week after that, St. Patrick’s Day will happen.
|

If you read this on Facebook and you are interested in International Women’s Day events or Enterprise Week events, go to www.DublinEventGuide.com to find the events for Tuesday. On Facebook only the weekend events are listed and the Monday to Friday events are “missing” on the Dublin Event Guide website all events for everyday are listed.

|
Donations in March:
EUR 177
|
|
(By the end of the month, this number has to reach or exceed EUR 200 to guarantee the continuation of the Dublin Event Guide.)
|
|
|
If the Dublin Event Guide helps you to find out about free events in Dublin, please help with a donation.
|
|
The counter here shows the current donation status. By the end of the month EUR 200 will be subtracted to pay the bills. If more money has been donated, the rest will be carried forward. If donations have stopped below the EUR 200, the missing amount will be carried over.
|
|
|
|
Last week the great people that helped with a donation were: Tara, Clodagh, Sabine, Valentina, Andrea, Cara, Cathal, Alan, Tomothy, Juliana. Thank you very much! You are appreciated and your donation is as well!
|
|
With the above counter you know at all times where we stand and when donating is needed. Donations keep the Dublin Event Guide alive and all donors will also get some additional bonuses. The first of those bonuses is described above.
|
|
Here are some more details about donations:
Any amount is appreciated, but if you are looking for a recommendation, then I suggest a donation of 12 Euro per year. – That’s just one Euro per month and you get FOUR Dublin Event Guides for that! If your funds are limited, but you still want to help, you can buy a virtual coffee for just EUR 3. All donations will be used in full for the Dublin Event Guide.
|
|
To donate, use the Dublin Event Guide Donation Page here: gturl.eu/DEGdonate. It is really easy to use and uses Stripe’s trustworthy payment processing. You can even sign up for a yearly subscription on the donation page! Yearly subscriptions will give some important financial stability and reliability to the Dublin Event Guide and are therefore very much appreciated! (Look for the RED subscription buttons at the bottom of the Donation Page.)
|
|
In case the donation page doesn’t work for you, the old links are here: You can donate via www.paypal.me/DublinEventGuide or for Revolut users among you, just use @joergbrb
(If possible, please send your full name and e-mail address as a message with the payment via PayPal or Revolut so that I can tell you about bonuses for donors when available.)
|
|
To buy one or two or even three virtual coffees for the Dublin Event Guide, come to the “Buy Me a Coffee” page here www.buymeacoffee.com/DublinEventG
|
 |
|
And there is one other way to help and it is even free: If you come to www.DublinEventGuide.com and check out some of the ads and click on the ones that you find interesting, that also helps with a few cent! ?
Thank you!!

+++ Local Enterprise Week
This is a yearly event for entrepreneurs and businesses of all levels. Over 7 days from 07-13 March the 31 Local Enterprise Offices in Ireland are organising talks, workshops and other events and nearly all of them are free. There are 12 Spotlight events here www.localenterprise.ie/Portal/Week/Local-Enterprise-2022.html and many other events here www.localenterprise.ie/DublinCity/Training-Events/Events%20/Local-Enterprise-Week-2022.html Most events are online, which is still a positive side effect of the recent pandemic because it improves the accessibility of events around the country significantly. Booking is required for all events. A DETAILED list of all events can be found at www.localenterprise.ie/Enable-Enterprise-Culture/Local-Enterprise-Week/
|
|
+++ Healthcare Job Fair
On Saturday 12 March a Healthcare Job Fair takes place in the RDS (Hall 4) in Ballsbridge. The events runs from 10:00-16:00 and booking is required via www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/164004027461 Because you might want to prepare for it I am including this event already this week.
|
|
+++ Low Priced Books with free delivery
Book Depository is the place where you can buy low priced books, usually for better prices than on Amazon and Book Depository always delivers for free. And by buying books from Book Depository you will also help the Dublin Event Guide for no additional cost to you. Use this link: shor.by/BookDepository .
|
|
++ Seachtain na Gaeilge – Irish Language Week
Seachtain na Gaeilge is an international Irish language festival. Events are organized by voluntary and community groups, local councils, schools, libraries and music, sports, arts and cultural organizations in their area. It will run from Tue 01 – Thu 17 March and all details can be found at snag.ie/
|
|
+++ LEARN A NEW SKILL WITH ONLINE COURSES
Is there ever a wrong time for learning a new skill or enhancing what you are already interested in? Maybe it is a language or an instrument or some technical skills? Or NLP or some Business related “soft skills”? Check out Udemy via the link below, they have thousands of courses and there is good chance that what you are looking for is available. Nearly all the courses are REALLY affordable!
The lowest cost for courses this month will be around 12.99. Check out the website at shor.by/GqCk And if you buy through that link, you also help the Dublin Event Guide! :-)
|
|
+++ The Treaty 1921: Records from the Archives – Exhibition
From 07 Dec to 27 March the Coach House in the gardens of Dublin Castle will be the home of a National Archives exhibition about “The Treaty 1921: Records from the Archives”. The Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921 is the centre piece of the exhibition. Find out more here www.dublincastle.ie/2022_centenary/ Admission is free, but you need to book via www.nationalarchives.ie/2021commemorationprogramme/book-tickets/
|
|
+++ National Gallery tickets available here
The National Gallery is usually free anyway, but in current times you will have to book tickets to get access and you have to enter the building on the Merrion Street side. Tickets are available here: www.nationalgallery.ie/visit-us/book-your-ticket The National Gallery also is running events again and because the events have limited number of spaces, they can book out relatively fast, at least before I can write about the events, so check out the events 1-2 weeks in advance here www.nationalgallery.ie/whats-on and then book tickets for them.
|
 |
|
And this is it for another week! Have a great weekend and good new week.
Take care,
–Joerg (dublineventguide@gmail.com)
