Athlone men raise €2,000 for Cancer Care West

Two Athlone men have raised €2,000 for Cancer Care West.

Danny Donohue and Johnsie Gavin raised the funds with a table quiz at The Bounty in Athlone.

The duo presented the cheque to Cancer Care West in recent days.

"We’re so grateful to them both for organising and running such a successful night," said Cancer Care West.

"Thank you also to The Bounty for hosting and providing the food, and to everyone who came along, donated prizes and supported the quiz. Every euro helps us make sure no one goes through cancer alone."

Cancer Care West is a registered charity providing emotional and practical supports to anyone who needs them. It does not charge for any of its services.
