The businesswoman and wife of singer Daniel O’Donnell has become the Irish Cancer Society’s biggest EVER individual fundraiser.

Majella has so far managed to raise a staggering €550,000 with her recent head-shave on the Late Late Show.

And the money is still rolling in.

Communications manager with the ICS, Grainne O’Rourke, confirmed “Donations are still coming in. We have had a phenomenal response to Majella’s campaign and we are incredibly grateful to Majella and to al those who kindly donated.

“This is the largest response we have had from one individual’s initiative to raise funds for us.”

A special video message from Majella, 52, was broadcast on last Friday’s Late Late Show thanking everyone for their wonder support and donations.
