Appeal to help with funeral costs for Cork toddler Santina Cawley reaches target in one day

A fundraising appeal to cover the funeral costs of a toddler who was killed in Cork raised more than €8,000 in just a few hours, with €3,000 of that being donated in the first hour.

A GoFundMe page was set up by Cork radio station RedFM after a friend of Santina Cawley's family phoned the Neil Prendeville Show appealing for help for the two-year-old's mother, Bridget (Bridgee) O’Donoghue.
