Kilcummin GAA donates over €7k to cancer charity
By Michelle Crean
Members of a local GAA club were delighted to hand over a huge donation of over €7,000.
The presentation of €7,236 - funds raised from two fundraisers organised by members of Kilcummin GAA Club in January - was made to Mary Horgan who was representing Comfort for Chemo.
The first event was a 'Pink Night' organised by the Ladies Committee to coincide with Women's Christmas. It was a great success with people coming out in huge numbers to enjoy a fantastic night of music, dancing and lots of prizes in the Klub bar.
Entertainment on the night was provided by Rosie and Derry Healy followed by DJ Declan McCarthy. Following on from this a '31 Card Memorial Tournament' was organised by the family and friends of the late Dermot 'Brady' Moynihan who was a very active member of Kilcummin GAA Club for many years and an avid card player.
The organisers of the events were delighted with the turnout for both occasions and thrilled with the money raised for such a worthy charity.
"We are so grateful to all the people who took part in the events and donated and a huge thank you goes to the wonderful individuals, business owners and companies who donated so generously to our prizes," Carmel O'Riordan, Kilcummin GAA Ladies Committee, said.
