Seven lucky Donegal sports teams have been drawn as winners for the Topaz 2017 Cash for Clubs initiative, with a total of €18,000 being awarded across the clubs.
After signing up to ‘Cash for Clubs’, members collected tokens by fueling up at their local Topaz station. The following three Donegal clubs were randomly selected as lucky jackpot prize winners as part of this year’s campaign: Twin Towns Boxing Club, St. Eunan’s GAA, and Letterkenny RFC. These three teams have been awarded €5,000 each.
Gweedore Celtic and Gweedore United FC were awarded €1,000 each under the initiative, with CLG Naomh Padraig Muff and Quigleys Point Swifts Football Club scooping €500 each.
This year, over 3,000 clubs registered for the initiative. Since its launch in 2015, Cash for Clubs has awarded €400,000 in prizes to clubs nationwide.
Sinead Moriarty, Marketing and Communications Manager at Topaz, said: “Topaz Cash for Clubs was first set up in 2015 to reward the tireless work of clubs in Ireland that demonstrate commitment to their communities each day.
“With 438 service stations across the island of Ireland, Topaz is very much at the heart of Irish communities, so we are thrilled to have the chance to reward the intrinsic roles that clubs play in their communities. We would like to extend our congratulations to the prize winning clubs from Donegal this year – we hope that the prize money will help them to make a difference to their community in the coming years.”
