Dunfanaghy Lady Captain Janice Doherty and her committee have raised over €2,600 from their Daffodil Day event.

The Dunfanaghy community came out in support of a great Coffee Morning organised by the three local Golf Clubs on March 23rd 2018.

This fundraiser was the idea of Portsalon Lady Captain Karen McGlinchey from the Donegal and North West Lady Captains Group. Janice made up a hamper to raffle on the day and all of the Ladies on Committee contributed items for the prize.

The overall figure raised between 3 clubs was €2,627 and between the draw for the Hamper and donations on the coffee morning Dunfanaghy Golf Club contributed €1,280. Portsalon contributed €1002 and Redcastle raised €345.

Organisers expressed their thanks to everyone who helped to make this day the success that it was:

“Thank you also to all of the ladies who baked and donated items for the Coffee Morning and to Dunfanaghy Golf Club and staff for supplying the endless tea and coffee required.

“There was so much support for this that the funds raised on the day were greatly in excess of that expected.”
