DONEGAL Action for
Cancer Care (DACC) has thanked more than 80 people
who took part in their 3k Bra Walk on April 12.
The quirky fundraiser was the idea of DACC members
Colette Burke from Burt and Jeanette Hegarty as they
sat around the fire one night contemplating unique
ways of raising money.
“It was a colourful day - I never knew there were so
many colourful bras," said Colette.
“It just shows how close to people hearts the whole
issue of cancer care is, especially when you see so
many young people joining in to help."
They women thanked the Letterkenny Town Band who led
the way, Cllr Victor Fisher, the Tin Man and Easter
Bunnies, Civil Defence and Brian Mullan for his
great music.
"A special thanks to all the business throughout
Donegal who despite the economic climate gave their
support through donating meal vouchers, bottles of
wine, cash, power tools, Easter eggs and toys etc,"
added Colette. All proceeds from the walk will go to
DACC and the new Breast Centre North West ( Breast
Cancer Unit) at Letterkenny General Hospital. |
