I will be taking part in the VHI Women’s Mini Marathon this year alongside my friends to raise funds for PAW Animal Rescue. While our fundraising goal may be small, we hope to contribute in a meaningful way to support the important work they do in rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming animals in need across Ireland.

This will be my second time taking part in the VHI Women’s Mini Marathon. After my previous experience, I wanted to challenge myself again while doing something meaningful with friends. We felt it would be a great opportunity to come together and support a cause that makes a positive difference in the lives of vulnerable animals.

This cause is especially important to me because I have always cared deeply about animal welfare. Seeing abandoned or neglected animals and learning about the challenges faced by rescue organisations has encouraged me to contribute, even in a small way, through something I genuinely enjoy—running.

In addition to supporting this fundraising initiative, I also hope to contribute positively to Irish society and give back to the community that I am proud to be part of.

Any donation, no matter how small, would be greatly appreciated. If you are unable to donate, sharing this page would also mean a lot.

Thank you sincerely for your kindness and support.
