Fundraiser For Cancer Support Services.
Donation protected
So here’s my story........ I was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2015, aged 30, & unfortunately it returned in June 2018 & I am currently receiving treatment. I was lucky enough to have the support of many amazing charities during this time. Unfortunately no body knows when cancer is going to knock on their door, but it brings amazing comfort to know that there are so many fantastic charities/organizations out there that go above & beyond every day to help people like me!! These same organizations/charities would not be possible without fundraising, which is why I am doing something to give back. Any contribution large or small is greatly appreciated & I have no doubt it will help others like me!!
The charities that I am hoping to help are -
ACT – Aid Cancer Treatment based in Cork University hospital - ACT is a completely voluntary organisation based in Cork. We aim to help those diagnosed with cancer in a practical way by helping to fund the latest equipment necessary to treat cancer, refurbishing and redecorating the waiting rooms and wards where those diagnosed spend the majority of their time, contributing to cancer research in order to further the understanding of cancer genes, and hopefully reach a cure.
BHOC – Bandon Hyperbaric Oxygen Centre – A volunteer run centre in Bandon Co. Cork which has an Oxygen chamber that helps with the treatment of cancer.
BTI - Brain Tumour Ireland - Brain Tumour Ireland was founded in 2012 by a small group of people caring for a family member who was sadly lost to a Brain Tumour. Through Brain Tumour Ireland (The Ronnie Fehily Foundation) we hope to create a place where people can come for information, guidance and comfort. A place to learn what to expect and a community to provide support.
Brú Columbanus - A charity that provides home from home accommodation to relatives of seriously ill patients in Cork hospitals.
