Hey Folks,
Jamie Woods, a member of the Waimak Gaels GAA is taking on the 2027 Kathmandu Coast to Coast in February. A grueling 247km multisport race to raise funds for the Kevin Bell Reparation Trust.
The Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust exists to lift the financial burden from heartbroken Irish families, helping them bring home loved ones who have tragically or unexpectedly passed away abroad.
Every dollar raised will directly aid Irish families during their times of deepest grief.
Jamie has set up a gofundme and we would really appreciate the support of our community to help Jamie reach his goal.
The society was established in 1948 to promote Irish culture, to support the Irish community and to strengthen the bonds of friendship between the Irish people and the people of Christchurch, many of whose descendants hail from Ireland.
There is now a thriving Irish immigrant community in Christchurch and over the coming years, as the garden city continues its path to rebuild the city, the Irish Society looks forward to welcoming many new members through its doors.
