Glenflesk and Kilcummin GAA Clubs have announced KWD as the main sponsor for its upcoming fundraiser, ‘A Night at the OsKaRs’.

The event will take place on December 7 in the INEC.

This is not the first time that the local re-cycling company have got behind the two clubs, as they were also the main sponsor when the OsKaR fundraiser was first tool place in 2018.

On that occasion it was a huge success, attracting a capacity crowd to the INEC and raising much needed funds for both clubs.

This year’s event promises to be bigger and better, with over a hundred actors signed up to act out eight films on the night.

“It’s great to be supporting a local event, the clubs did such a good job five years ago that we are proud to be part of it again,” said KWD’s Sean Murphy.

The sponsorship deal was officially launched last week in the Killarney Heights Hotel.

“We are extremely grateful for KWD’s generous support which will play a pivotal role in the success of the event,” says Niamh Dwyer of Kilcummin GAA.

Bringing together the two clubs and parishes has generated huge interest in the event, with lots of new people taking part this time around.

Rehearsals start on September 6 with filming taking place in early October.

“There is a real buzz around the place and actors can’t wait to get started,” said Derry Healy of Glenflesk GAA, “Having a company like KWD supporting us has given us a massive boost.”

The usual morning routine was swapped for slippers and dressing gowns at Maggie’s Montessori last Friday as the children took part in the annual National Pyjama Day.

The local event was held in support of LauraLynn, Ireland’s Children’s Hospice, and Early Childhood Ireland’s Eco-Emotions project.
The theme for the day was “children helping children and having fun,” with the Killarney toddlers joining over 65,000 children nationwide in the massive fundraising drive. Since its inception in 2003, National Pyjama Day has raised more than €4.5 million to support developmental and wellbeing projects for young people across the country.
Funds raised during the day at Maggie’s will go directly toward LauraLynn’s Family Support Services. These services provide essential emotional, therapeutic, and practical care for children with palliative and complex needs, as well as their families.
Teresa Heeney, CEO of Early Childhood Ireland, noted that the day is a celebration of kindness and community. This sentiment was echoed by LauraLynn CEO Kerry McLaverty, who stated that the spirit of children helping their peers aligns perfectly with the mission of the hospice.
