Darkness into Light is
a unique, early morning fundraising event which

walk or run a 5km route while dawn is breaking.

100 locations in Ireland and abroad including in the
US, the UK, Scotland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand
the Middle East and Asia.
This year's event, on Saturday, May 7, 2016, is set
to be the biggest ever in Donegal with seven venues
on board to host it including Donegal Town, Maghery,
Letterkenny and for the first time Buncrana,
Arranmore Island, Falcarragh and Tory Island.
Everyone is welcome to attend the Donegal launch at
The Station House Hotel, Letterkenny, on Friday,
March 4, 2016 at 7pm. Registration and route
information will be available on the night or at
