Thirty community and voluntary groups across Limerick are to receive more than €211,000 in combined funding from the monies raised during the RTÉ Does Comic Relief telethon earlier this year.
The money is being distributed by The Community Foundation for Ireland which has provided over €60 million to communities across the country during the past 20 years.
