On Saturday January 13th a coffee morning will take place in the Old Weir Lodge, Muckross Road from 10 am until 12.30 pm. The event is being organised by Muireann O’Donoghue and Sinead Byrne, 2 transition students from St. Brigid’s Presentation Secondary School and is in aid of Cliona’s Foundation which is a charity that provides financial assistance to families of children with life limiting illness. The charity relies on donations and sponsorship to assist the families who may be experiencing financial difficulties whilst caring for their child. You can read more about the charity here (www.clionas.ie) 

In May, Muireann and Sinéad will travel to Spain to walk the Camino with Cliona’s. The girls have covered the cost of travel, accommodation, and food themselves but need to raise an additional €2,000 for the charity in advance of the trip. All monies raised through the coffee morning will go directly to Cliona’s charity. 

The girls are looking forward to welcoming a large crowd to their coffee morning this Saturday and hope that many of their families and friends will support this very worthy cause. 

If you are unable to attend the coffee morning but would like to donate the girls have set up an iDonate page which can be accessed via the following link.  https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/MuireannODonoghue
