This year’s Christmas Appeal at WLR has raised over €90,000 despite restrictions over activities due to the coronavirus.
The Money raised will go directly to the SVP in Waterford so they can continue to help the people of Waterford City and County. The services provided not only include financial assistance for food, bills, rent, fuel, and electricity where necessary, but also, support for people in making a better life for themselves and their families.
Events this year were difficult due to restrictions, but several virtual events took place including the ‘Wear Red Day’, the annual Santa run, a virtual swim, 12-dogs of Christmas, the Roy Collins and Friends Santa experience at Copper Coast Mini-Farm, the Farm Auction which raised over €8,700, surfing lessons, text donations, school fundraisers and the coffee morning supported by Liberty Blue, Blue Butterfly, Cass and Co, Barista Bay Coffee, The Lemon Tree and Molly’s.
