KERRYHOSPICE FOUNDATION
THRESHING CANCER
The wonderful group that is Threshing Cancer had another hugely successful cheque presentation night on Friday last. They have yet again raised huge funds for Cancer charities in Kerry and we are hugely thankful for their support yet again this year. Over the last number of years they have raised huge funds for many charities and they handed over a cheque to Kerry Hospice for a massive €16,000 and presented cheques to many more charities on the night.
We can not thank this group of people enough for the great support over the years and we thank all who supported the very successful events.
We must also congratulate Threshing Cancer on their recent deserved award from the Kerryman Awards night.
