Builder’s €500,000 donation ‘will help transform lives’

BUILDERS donated €500,000 to Cork’s Simon community yesterday - the single biggest donation the organisation has received in its 30-year history.

Cork Simon director Colette Kelleher described it as a “huge, huge leg up” for the agency tackling homelessness.

“The people who are transforming this city are now helping us to transform the lives of those we work with,” she said.
