We undertook this cycle to raise funds for Cope Foundation. Cope Foundation is a charitable organisation based in Cork that does amazing work, catering for over 1600 children and adults with intellectual disability through its systems of early intervention, schooling, training, adult day services, supported employment, housing, information and advice at 60 locations throughout Cork city and county. For further information go to http://www.cope-foundation.ie/index.php
We bore all our own costs in relation to the cycle (bikes, accommodation etc.) thus all monies raised by us went directly to Cope Foundation. As a means of raising funds, we organised a charity jive dancing night on Friday 9th May 2008 at the Garda Club, Harrington Street, Dublin 8. Click Here for Photos on Picasa.
In the end, through a combination of the Jive Night and donations, we raised a grand total of €3,520 which we presented to John Clifford of COPE in July.
