DONEGAL Action for
Cancer Care (DACC) were recently delighted to accept
a cheque from two local sisters who ran the Flora
Mini Marathon in aid of the organisation. Brid Diver
from Newtowncunnigham and her sister Frances Murphy,
Manorcunningham, ran the marathon in Dublin on June
1 and raised 1,610 for cancer patients in Donegal. |
It is great for us as
an organisation when we get phone calls telling us
that members of the public have chosen us as their
charity for fundraising, said DACC treasurer
Colette Burke.
"Such was the call we got from sisters Brid Diver
and Frances Murphy who afterwards presented DACC
with 1610 for their efforts.
"Like so many people in |
 |
|
Donegal, cancer has had
an impact on their lives and they wanted to do
something positive to ensure that cancer services
for Donegal patients are secured. Great work
ladies," added Colette. |
