This week our Cairde Loughrea community came together for a very special cause, and we are so incredibly proud to share that we raised an amazing β¬1,250.20 for Alfie and his family. Noreen, has so kindly matched these donations so we have raised β¬2,500.40 in total! ππ
For anyone who doesnβt know Alfie and his story, Alfie is the kindest, most lovable, inquisitive boy who is full of energy and knowledge! Alfie was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) in November last year and is undergoing treatment that requires a lot of travelling and both emotional and financial pressures on the family. Throughout this tough journey, Alfieβs parents Valerie and Ian have shown incredible strength, courage and love for their three little boys.
A heartfelt thank you to every child, parent, family member and staff member who donated, played games and helped make our Carnival Fundraiser such a success. Your kindness and generosity have been truly overwhelming.
Most importantly, we want Alfie and his family to know that they are surrounded by love and support. We hope this contribution helps in some small way as they navigate the journey ahead.
From all your Cairde Family πποΈ
