GOAL are looking for help to set up more Christmas Mile events in Cork

Every Christmas, the GOAL charity run GOAL MILE events all over the country to raise funds for their ongoing work. Essentially, people just turn up on the day, make a donation and then run a mile over an accurate course to see what kind of time they can do.

Alan Vard of GOAL has been in touch to say that they are looking for help to set up more events in Co Cork. I know this blog reaches a lot of people right across Munster so I presume they wouldn't say no to help in other counties either.

Alan Vard of GOAL writes... "Right now, GOAL’s courageous country teams are responding to crisis in Gazza, Sudan, and Lebanon, providing food, blankets, and other essentials to those who have lost everything. In Northern Syria, GOAL is providing water to over 250,000 people daily. And in 11 other countries, across Africa, Central America and the Middle East, GOAL staff are working around the clock to save and transform lives."

"I feel very privileged to work in support of the brave and tireless GOAL staff around the world, but to continue GOAL’s essential lifesaving work we need your support. I’m looking to get some more GOAL Mile locations in Cork."
