The Iveagh Trust /ˈv/ is a provider of affordable housing in and around Dublin in Ireland. It was initially a component of the Guinness Trust, founded in 1890 by the then Edward Cecil Guinness, great-grandson of the founder of the Guinness Brewery, to help homeless people in Dublin and London. Edward Cecil Guinness was created the 1st Baron Iveagh in 1891, the 1st Viscount Iveagh in 1905, and the 1st Earl of Iveagh in 1919. The Iveagh Trust is not otherwise related to the brewery company.
