Party Against Poverty

Ulster Ladies Gaelic & Ulster Camogie are working together in conjunction with Trócaire in a campaign called “Party Against Poverty”.  The initiative aims to raise funds for Women in Uganda while at the same time raising funds for our clubs.

All clubs in the GAA family are asked to get involved in the campaign so that our GAA family can help other families who are not as well off as ourselves.  All clubs are asked to do is to throw a party under the banner of Party Against Poverty and out of the funds raised from the event up to 50% of them can be kept by your club.

The parties can be anything from a disco to a table quiz, a house party to a talent show, a guest tea to a fancy dress party – we don’t care what you do, we just want you to do something and help us help those in greater need than ourselves!

All parties should be organised as end of Lent events so should take place between Easter Sunday and 30th April with the proceeds lodged with Trócaire as soon as possible after the event.

A party pack with further information to get your party started can be ordered by visiting www.partyagainstpoverty.ulstercamogie.ie or by visiting www.ulsterladiesgaelic.com and clicking on the “Party Against Poverty” logo on the home page.  Alternatively free phone 0800 912 1200 and a pack will be sent out.
We can’t change the world, but together, Ulster Gaels can make a difference.
