Conclusion of Superbly Successful GoFundMe Project Approaches

As we approach the conclusion on 30th Nov. 2025 of our current fundraising supporting Millstreet Museum & Millstreet Community Website we are delighted to report that due to the absolutely tremendous generosity of so many people and organisations it now appears that the final amount donated which we shall share on our final update, will guarantee coverage for the next four years once costs remain relatively stable.   A million thanks from all the Website and Museum Team for such greatly appreciated generosity.   

UPDATE: As we approach the conclusion of our hugely successful GoFundMe project on Sunday night, 30th Nov. 2025 we wish to extend heartfelt sincere thanks for such greatly appreciated support which together with further funds which have been presented by hand or bank transfer will most likely cover our expenses for the next four years.
