About The Mount Street Club: Dublin's Unique Response To

In 1934 a group of Dublin businessmen decided to combat poverty by setting up an unemployed men's `club', wherein men could earn `tallies' which they could exchange for food, clothing, fuel, or furniture. It was revolutionary in proving that men from the slums could make a constructive contribution to society and helped hundreds of unskilled workers gain employment. With over 150 facsimiles, photographs, and documents of interest, this is a beautiful and entertaining insight into rich history and the impact of true philanthropy.
