Scoil Mhuire Gan Smal in Letterkenny successfully completed the 1for1@1 challenge!
Orla Carlin and Ena Barrett from Relay for Life made their way to the school to join them for their 1pm challenge.
Scoil Mhuire Gan Smal, pictured with their principal Ms. Irene Simmons, 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.
Relay for Life are extremely grateful to all of the children, teachers, and staff who took part in the challenge.
