The ‘Relay for Life Donegal’ Schools 1for1@1 Challenge is well underway and, in association with ourselves Donegal Daily, we are asking all schools across the county to get involved over the next 19 days.
What a great start having our Donegal GAA Captain Michael Murphy launching the challenge for us and a list of 24 schools who have confirmed that they will be taking part.
We would love to add your school’s name to this list and get it up here on Donegal Daily – are you up for the challenge?
From today until Friday, May 19th, we are asking schools to pick one challenge and on their chosen day to carry it out at one-o-clock.
Every student takes one euro into the school (hence the name 1@1for1) Every single euro raised for Relay for Life this year goes directly to the extensive research programme for cancer survivors presently ongoing at Letterkenny University Hospital.
Unfortunately, cancer does affect every family and we are asking ‘’ALL SCHOOLS’’ to please cconsider taking part as every euro is so important to us.
If your school has any queries you can phone Robert O’Connor on (087)2716344 or Seamus Mc Bride on (087) 2289477 or you can register your school to take part by sending us an e mail to relayforlifedonegal@gmail.com
Donegal Daily
We at Donegal Daily have joined forces with the Relay for Life Donegal committee to promote the Schools Challenge for this most worthy of causes.
We are asking schools to do a one minute video of your challenge and send it to relayforlifedonegal@gmail.com.
As you can appreciate, it would be impossible for us to show all videos sent in but we will put up a selection of them over the next two weeks. If you can also send a photo of the students taking part in their challenge to the same address we will put that photograph up for viewing.
Remember that on the weekend of Relay for Life Donegal 27th/28th May at Letterkenny LYIT, all of the videos sent in will be shown on the ‘Big Screen’. So keep in touch with Donegal Daily and with the Relay for Life Donegal facebook page during the challenge!
