Fundraise

On behalf of the committee of The Miscarriage Association of Ireland, I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to one of our committee members Kate C Nolan who donated her commission from painting five beautiful landscapes, two of which you see in the picture below, to us.

We were all blown away by Kate’s generosity which will allow The Miscarriage Association of Ireland to continue to provide its core supports of telephone, email, support group meetings, providing information, placing memorial stones, etc whilst also giving us the opportunity to start other projects.

Thank you Kate.

Deirdre Pierce McDonnell, Chairperson

The Miscarriage Association of Ireland would like to extend a huge thank you to Dawn O’Connor and her team who organised the Galway Remembrance Run. It was a 5 km race and 162 people took part. an amazing €1,450 was raised.

There was a beautiful Remembrbance tree at the registration tent. Here people could write special messages in memory of their precious baby (babies).

Well done Dawn and what a beautiful way to remember all those babies gone too soon.

The Miscarriage Association of Ireland would like to extend a huge thank you to Niamh Darcy of Morriscastle Strand Holiday Park (www.morriscastlestrand.com) who raised €1,000 in donations on behalf of the Association.

The funds are much appreciated and will help the committee continue the work of supporting women and their families through the sometimes hidden grief of losing a baby through miscarriage.

A massive thank you to Maureen V Ward Talent Agency and Talented Kids Performing Arts School for putting on a very festive Christmas Concert in the Helix last December in aid of The Miscarriage Association of Ireland and as a result raised €3,091.

This will go along way to help us continue the work that we do to support women and their families through their loss. Thanks again to all the very talented kids, their teachers and parents for all their support and generosity. Also thank you to all those who gave the spot prizes for the raffle on the night.
