Minister Patrick O’Donovan has announced funding of €71,251 for 6 projects across Co Limerick under a scheme administered by Minister Heather Humphreys for services being provided to vulnerable people.
“This is very good news for six organisations across the County. Community and voluntary organisations all over the country have struggled to fund raise to keep services going and this allocation from Heather Humphreys will make a big difference to those that have received it.”
The money is being made available from the Department of Rural and Community Development through the dormant accounts fund.
Patrick O’Donovan said he had spoken to Heather Humphreys on the challenges facing the community sector and said that he recognises that there will be fundraising problems for a period ahead and he had asked that her Department would look to see if further supports could be made for more groups and organisations across the country.
