John and Johanna O’Hara presented a cheque for €42,350 to HUGG CEO Fiona Tuomey.
At the end of June this year, the O’Hara family John, Johanna O’Hara and their 2 sons Oisín & Liam arranged a fundraising walk in memory of their eldest son and brother Niall who died by suicide in March 2019, aged 20. The walk followed the route from his home in Muckerstaff, Longford to Maynooth University, where he was a student
To anyone who donated, thank you so much. We are blown away by the generosity of people and can’t believe how much money was raised. This money will help us continue supporting people who have experienced the devastating loss of someone to suicide.
We would like to thank the O’Hara family for organising the walk and choosing HUGG to receive a portion of the money raised. We would also like to thank them for raising awareness of HUGG and the importance of support for people who have been bereaved by suicide.
