💕❤💕 Love Is In The Air!

Following the success of our previous Valentines Raffles, we are pleased to kick start the year with the launch of our 2020 “Valentines Raffle”.
Again this year, the raffle is the initiative of parents Aedin Collins and Dominique Majecki, who secured all the prizes on offer.
We thank all the sponsors, especially Glenlo Abbey Hotel & Estate for their generous sponsorship of fantastic prizes, enabling all monies raised from the sale of raffle tickets to directly benefit Voices for Down Syndrome Galway.
With speech therapy now being offered in 3 locations (DSG East, West and NUIG) as well as Little Owls group sessions, monies raised from the raffle will help meet our running costs for the year ahead.

Tickets are great value at €5 each (book of 20 €100), with a fantastic range of prizes to be won.
Top 3 prizes:
1 night B&B for 2 people at the 5- star Glenlo Abbey Hotel & Estate Galway
2nd prize: Round of golf for 4 people on the Ballesteros course at The Heritage Golf Resort Laois
3rd prize: Dinner for 2 people in the Pullman Restaurant
at the 5 star Glenlo Abbey Hotel & Estate

We would welcome any extra opportunity to sell raffle tickets via you work place, clubs, friends, extended family etc.
Raffle books can be obtained by contacting Carmel Hannon on 087 6448277 or email info@voicesforgalway.org ... See MoreSee Less
