Graiguecullen GAA have organised a fundraiser and they need as much support as is humanly possible.
The fundraiser is in aid of Jordan Touhy, a young boy from Fruit Hill Manor, Graiguecullen.
At just 11 years old, Jordan was recently diagnosed with Lymphoma cancer.
He is currently receiving chemo therapy treatment in Crumlin Hospital.
Jordan attends St Fiacc’s National School in Graiguecullen, and is never without a ball.
He is a fantastic sports person, highly liked by his peers and coaches.
Jordan plays U-11 and U-13 Gaelic football with Graiguecullen. He is also massive Liverpool supporter and plays for the local soccer team, St Patrick’s AFC.
The next few months will be difficult for Jordan and his family, so Graiguecullen GAA club have promised to get behind them, any way they can.
The family has strong links with theclub. Jordan’s older brother, Scott and younger brother, James both play with the club, while their Mam, Megan also wore the red and green.
The club are currently holding a draw with the funds raised going to Jordan and his family.
The prize is two tickets to the All-Ireland Football Final this Sunday between Kerry and Dublin. Entry is just €10 and the draw will be this Friday, July 28.
Anyone wishing to get involved can do so through the Graiguecullen GAA club shop; by contacting any committee member; or through this Revolut link.
Fundraising has already begun, with St Patrick’s holding a bake sale and local hairdresser, Berlin, hosting a jersey weekend, supported by several business in the area.
