The journey to the shelter's new location off of Letterkenny West Road. Its been in the process for five years by using the money that they had from fundraising to loans to make this energy efficient building.
The new shelter has skylights to reduce the amount of electricity and uses rainwater for cleaning and they say there's still more to come.
