The Athlone-Ukraine Solidarity Group group, in conjunction with The Venue in Athlone, will host a Red Cross Ukraine fundraising event on Friday, May 6, the proceeds of which will be going directly to this extremely worthy cause.
Athlone, to date, has welcomed over 100 people from the Ukraine with open arms and the support has been remarkable and the ongoing work of the Red Cross in the war zone is of crucial importance, especially for those who have not been able to flee from the perilous areas.
The Athlone-Ukraine Solidarity united in an effort to support the vital Red Cross’ work, collaborating with the team in the Venue (Prince of Wales Hotel ) to host a night of eclectic entertainment. It promises to be a great night but most importantly, affords the local community the ability to support a service that has been instrumental in the preservation of life in Ukraine.
