It's been a busy period here in ChildAid.

We have had our CORK CONJOINED TWINS APPEAL, which are delighted to say was a great success. A huge thank you to Adain Browne and Patricia O' Neill who held fundraisers on behalf of ChildAid, and more importantly, Hassan and Hussain. And our thanks as well to all who contributed to the appeal.

Colin Gorman recently held a Golf Classic and a Bike Run for ChildAid. And to say he didn't hold back on the organisation and promotional material around the events is an understatement.

 Pictured on the left is the car he had 'restyled'

On the right Castle Barna Golf Club decorated on the morning of his golf classic.

And below are some of the bikers who participated in the Bike Run pictured at the launch of the event in the Curragh Camp

There were more banners out and about the golf course.

THANKS COLIN!!!!!

Finally (for now) we held our first annual Flag Day in Cork on the 15th May 2010. Students from two local schools, St Angela's and St Aloysuis participated on the day, and we had 40 ChildAid friends from the locality out and about as well. The day was a great success, and we would like to thank all who helped, and made the event a success.
