Fran Grincell raises nearly €30,000 (so far) for Cois Nore in Kilkenny
He’s spent evening after evening outside in the freezing cold raising funds for a worthy cause, and he’d do it all again in a heartbeat.
Fran Grincell’s annual kick-a-thon has become a fundraising tradition in Kilkenny in recent years, and this year Cois Nore Cancer Support Centre are the proud beneficiaries.
After a huge final push for donations, Fran has raised €27,870 - smashing his €25,000 goal!
The even better news is that Fran’s donation page will remain active online until January 21, 2023, so it’s likely to exceed €30,000 over the coming days and weeks.
Speaking to Kilkenny Live, Fran thanked all the people who showed up to support him every evening.
“The generosity of local people has been immense,” he said.
“Cois Nore does incredible work locally so every little helps.”
