Killarney Valley Classic and Vintage Club’s fundraiser tops €56K
The Killarney Valley Classic and Vintage Club presented cheques totalling €56,000 to several local charities.
The funds were raised during last year’s Land Rover restoration project and subsequent raffle.
Tickets were sold all over the county and country which raised much needed funds for the Kerry Stars, Killarney Rugby Club, St. Francis School and the Paul Murphy Fundraiser.
First prize was the restored 1979 Land Rover, second prize of was a 1983 Honda 70 and third prize a 2003 Honda X8R.
“These charity projects can only happen with the support of the public to buy tickets but also the many local businesses that sponsor us including BG Motors, Lee Strand, Red Chair Recruitment and The Warehouse Cafe,” said club PRO Richard O’Donoghue.
“With all the support we get, nothing could happen without the hard working members who restore these vehicles over the winter months in our Vintage shed. It is great to be a part of such a strong community but even better to be able to give back when we can.”
Just as newspapers and magazines are paid for, digital editorial content will also have to be paid for.
