COFFEE MORNINGS RAISE €4.5K FOR LOCAL HOSPICE
BUCCANEERS Administrator Geraldine Kenny hosted not one but two Coffee Mornings recently in The Bounty in aid of the South Westmeath Hospice. Such was the turnout and generosity that the significant sum of €4,520 was raised for this most worthy local charity. Sincere gratitude is extended to Geraldine for her endeavour which generated this considerable amount of greatly needed funds.
At a pleasant informal function in The Bounty, Syra Reid accepted a cheque on behalf of South Westmeath Hospice and was most grateful to receive such a large donation. Meanwhile, Geraldine thanked all her volunteers and helpers including Stella Devine and Mary Kilcline and to Ireland rugby international Anna McGann and Councillor Frank Keena who helped raise the profile of the two Coffee Mornings. She also acknowledged the support of Tom Silke and the staff at The Bounty for their assistance in hosting them.
