Elaine O'Donnell from Ranafast has extended gratitude following her 50th birthday fundraiser. 

Elaine held her birthday celebrations in Bonners Bar, Mullaghduff, in aid of the Arranmore RNLI.  Elaine took to social media to thank all who helped organise the celebration, all who came to Bonner’s Bar and all who donated to the fundraiser. 

“Where do I start?” Elaine said. “I would like to thank with all my heart each and every one who has donated to Arranmore  RNLI.”

“To the indescribable crew of the Arranmore lifeboat who, due to a major rescue operation, were unable to join us on the night. What you do for others is priceless and I can only hope that the monies raised for you will help in some small way to help with some future rescues.”
