Ann Noone, one of the organisers of the Duleek 10K, which raises thousands of Euros each year for Cystic Fibrosis, has thanked the very loyal band of supporters who, between them, have this year managed to raise a staggering €27,160 and counting.
“This year we dedicated our CF Run to a very special and extraordinary woman, Rosaleen Reilly, who, along with her husband Mal fundraised tirelessly for our Drogheda Branch of Cystic Fibrosis Ireland” Anne said. “Rosaleen, a local Drogheda lady will be very sadly missed by all her family, friends and the Drogheda CF branch committee.”
“The Future of Fundraising is very bright when we look around and see all the young people.
“I have to congratulate Harry, 12 years old, for organising Kelley’s Dart tournament and together with all his cousins raised €330. That was great fun! Well done to all
