MARY AND MICHAEL ‘LIGHT’ UP THE LIVES OF SO MANY!

image1Whoriskey’s Christmas lights in Kerrykeel have gained all but legendary status in Donegal.

From humble beginnings, the lights (which can allegedly be seen from space!) have now cult status.

But they’re certainly not just for show.

In fact, this year yet again the lights have once again helped to raise a considerable amount of cash for two very important charities.

A total of €7,400 was raised and was divided between the Donegal Hospice and the Irish Kidney Association (Donegal branch).

The Whoriskeys presented two cheques to the organisations and have also publicly thanked all those who donated money as well as those who attended their fundraising concert and quiz.
