This
charity evening takes place thanks to Mercedes Benz at the Tom Murphy Car Sales
showrooms, on the Cork Road, Waterford on Wednesday November 19th at 7.30pm, with light food and drinks
reception beforehand.
The charities to benefit from the movie night are the SECF Solas Centre and The Society of St. Vincent de Paul.
The
SECF Solas Centre is a registered charity 100% reliant on donations to provide
services free to people affected by cancer. The generosity and
commitment of the public will help the South Eastern Cancer Foundation to continue and
further improve the services provided at the Solas Centre and to reach more
people affected by cancer.
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SVP) was
founded in Ireland in 1844. Its focus is on practical approach to dealing with
poverty, alleviating its effects on individuals and families through working
primarily in person-to-person contact by a unique system of family visitation
and seeking to achieve social justice and equality of opportunity for all
citizens.
Barry
Murphy of Tom Murphy Mercedes Benz is looking forward to the event, “We at Tom
Murphy Mercedes Benz are delighted to be associated with this unique event.
When approached with the idea of a charity film night in conjunction with Rotary
Waterford we jumped at the chance. It’s such an original idea and the
opportunity to work with Rotary to raise funds for such worthy causes couldn’t
be passed up.”
The
Rotary Club of Waterford raised approximately
€30,000 for charities in 2013, including local charities such as Waterford Hospice. Waterford
Rotary Club is best known locally for the annual Memorial Christmas Tree in John Roberts Square .
Tickets
cost €25 ( all of which goes to charity) and can be purchased from Tom Murphy
Mercedes Benz showrooms on the Cork Road and David M. Breen & Co. Wallace
House, Maritana Gate, Canada Street, Waterford
