Martin Cahill is CFAI's Development Manager & Fundraiser. Below you can find some of the Association's forthcoming fundraising initiatives.
With the welcome increase in life expectancy of people with CF over the years, the demand for our service has also increased dramatically during this time.
This in turn, has resulted in the need for greater financial resources to be made available to the Association, in order that we can continue our very valuable work.
With little Government assistance, it is becoming apparent that in order for us to continue to carry out our work, we must obtain further financial assistance to meet the rising shortfall.
I would therefore encourage and ask you to support our work in improving the quality and quantity of life for the 1100+ CF Patients in Ireland.
The CFAI have many people participating in raising funds but there can never be enough.
There are many ways of raising funds so if you would like to contribute to a very needy cause please contact us »
