St Kieran's Annual Charity Road Hurling 2021

Since 2016, St Kierans GAA club have raised over €13,000 for local charities through the annual road hurling on December 27th. The event has become a great social occasion while raising funds for good causes. Along with all the hurlers that participate, over the last number of years, many walkers walk the route at the same time in support of the fundraiser. This is fantastic to see.

This year, more than ever, it’s really important that we run and promote this event as it has been a very challenging year, for obvious reasons, for everyone and especially for all charitable organizations.

The first charity we have chosen is Milford Care Centre, Limerick. Milford Care Centre provides Specialist Palliative Care and Older Persons Services in the Mid West as a voluntary, not-for-profit organisation.

Our second chosen charity is Temple Street children's hospital who were at the center of our own Orin Hough's recovery.

With the obvious challenges that Covid 19 brings to running this event safely, we will adapt the format to make the event a success. Step 1 is to set up this ‘go fund me’ page and so we’d encourage you to be as generous as you can to support our charities using this donation system. There will be a bucket collection on the day too.

We’d sincerely like to thank you all for your magnificent support in the past and really hope you can support us again this December 27th. Thanks very much.
