The IT Tralee St. Vincent De Paul Society is a voluntary group of students that raises awareness and supports students in need e.g. financial, stress, loneliness, hunger, lack of resources, issues with grants, homelessness and isolation.
They provide support by funding Scholarships, food hampers, and food vouchers and link in with other agencies to help students tailored to their needs. A large part of their volunteering involves connecting with people, networking within the campus and other colleges, meeting with college staff and outside agencies. The Fashion Show is only one of many events, which the I.T.T SVP Society organise each year.
