G-Mac chips in to help ‘fix’ Crumlin

Golf superstar Graeme McDowell last night donated $200,000 (€159,000) to Crumlin Children’s Hospital.

McDowell, who aids charities north and south of the border and in the US through his G-Mac Foundation, explained that the young patients requiring treatment in the hospital “deserve quality facilities to match the world class care that they receive”.

Earlier this year, Crumlin’s medical and research foundation launched an appeal for €8m in funding to help renovate its cancer ward and construct a state of the art cardiac facility.
