A Little Lolly Goes a Long Way! – Show your support for the Oesophageal Cancer Fund this Lollipop Day, 26th and 27th February – Pic shows 2 yr old Róise McBride from Donegal.
THE Oesophageal Cancer Fund (OCF) are appealing for volunteers across Donegal to help with their fund-raising Lollipop Day next month.
With just over one month to go until the 15th annual Lollipop Day, the OCF is calling for more volunteers in Donegal on Friday, 26th and Saturday, 27th of February 2016 to help raise vital funds for oesophageal cancer.
Lollipop Day involves thousands of people selling lollipops (€2) nationwide, in an effort to raise vital funds for oesophageal cancer. Without the generosity and support from volunteers, the OCF would not be able to provide the vital role it does in terms of awareness, research and better outcomes for patients and their families with this cancer in Ireland. If you have a few hours to spare on Friday, 26th and Saturday 27th of February, pop down on your own or with friends, have some fun and help the OCF!
“We are very fortunate to have an ever increasing number of dedicated volunteers, all of whom make Lollipop Day possible and a success every year,” said Noelle Ryan, OCF chairperson. “But we still need more volunteers so if anyone or any group is interested in helping out, please contact us on www.lollipopday.ie.”
For more information on Lollipop Day; to volunteer, to make a donation, go to www.lollipopday.ie or to volunteer in Donegal please call Therese Gallagher on 0876781559.
