Millstreet Primary Schools Parents Association Fundraiser

Millstreet Primary Schools Parents Association would like to thank you all for your support throughout the year to date. All our funds raised go directly back to our two local schools, and without your support it would not be possible. So thank you all!

There will be one lucky winner who will win 50% of the jackpot and the other 50% will be donated back to the schools. This fundraiser is now live and can be reached on the link here. It is one ticket for €5 euro or three for €10 euro.

We are hoping we can spread the word to as many people as we can.

The draw will run until June 12th and we hope to do something that day to mark the draw and announce the winner 🥳

Again it is one prize and one winner. The more entries we have the higher the jackpot, so get spreading the word please and every ticket counts 🤞🏻🥳
