Foreword Dany: When Fiona and Peter Sharkey told me once about this place and the “Happy Place” of their son Sean who passed away a few weeks ago, I was impressed by such kindness and care that this foundation provides. Therefore a bit of support and promotion is needed for such a brilliant cause. My good friend Bryan Mc Crystal who has a close relationship with the family Sharkey wanted to help and organised a fundraiser, spearheaded by his young son Rian (11) who will cycle 200km in February to raise funds. I wish Rian and the Maria Goretti Foundations lots of success. At such young age being charitable demands RESPECT!! How to do donate and info of the fundraiser here below
Covid has severely impacted most charities’ ability to raise much-needed funds. The Maria Goretti Foundation offers residential respite care for children with disabilities. Rían would like to help this brilliant local children’s charity at this tough time.
11-year-old Rían is challenging himself to ride 200km in the month of February!
Please help support the Maria Goretti Foundation by donating to Rían’s cycling challenge. Every donation counts, no matter how small!
We’ll keep you updated on social media & Strava on Rían’s progress. Maybe you’d like to virtually cycle this challenge with him? Go for it and enjoy it!
