Yesterday Seamus and Ena from Relay for Life dropped in to St. Bernadette’s School in Letterkenny to join them on their 1for1@1 challenge!
They all had a fantastic time dancing to the hokey pokey and spirits were high following the challenge – ‘that’s what it’s all about!’
Saint Bernadette’s was one of 52 schools across the county that took part in the 1for1@1 challenge.
The 1for1@1 challenge was created when the team at Donegal Daily joined forces with the Relay for Life Donegal committee to promote the Schools Challenge in order to raise vital funds for cancer survivors, with an extensive research programme currently underway at Letterkenny University Hospital.
The 1FOR1@1 challenge involves carrying out an activity on a chosen day at 1pm – when completed, children are asked for donate €1 – hence the name 1FOR1@1, in aid of cancer research.
