Some VIVA Wheelers take a break on the Bantry 100
Aine Collins with her medals!
This summer, VIVA supporters have raised almost € 23,000 in various fundraisers. First up was Aine Collins, a vet student in UCD,who raised over € 700 running in four races earlier in the summer
Midland Showjumping have been very supportive of VIVA in the past and this year was no exception. They donated € 2000 from the proceeds of their summer showjumping event to VIVA
The annual VIVA Golf Classic was held in Glasson on August 6th. 40 teams battled it out for the top prize on this fantastic course raising over € 5,000 for VIVA's overseas projects. Thanks again to Tony McManus for his contribution to the success of this event.
The VIVA Wheelers annual 100km cycle challenge had a hard act to follow after the success of the inaugral event in the Burren last year. However, their luck held with the " Bantry 100 " cyclists basking in sunshine as they whizzed around the awesome scenery of the Sheep's Head and Mizen peninsulas. This latest cycle will raise almost € 15,000 to add to the € 150,000 already raised by the Wheelers since 2005
