ICA news: Wexford charity walk raises €3,000 for deserving causes

Presenting the proceeds of a fundraising walk to two local charities gave Wexford ICA members a feeling of empowerment.

So says Joe Keane, the PRO of Wexford ICA, which recently held its first meeting of the year. President Breda Banville presented €1,500 each to Wexford Hospice Homecare and The Alzheimer’s Society (Wexford).

Accepting the cheque on behalf of the hospice, Eithne Fitzpatrick answered questions about the organisation’s services and said 50% of financing came from voluntary donations.
