The Oranmore Maree GAA club has raised €1.5 million through a recent fundraising initiative, according to Galway Bay FM. The draw’s top prize, a home in Galway city, was won by a woman from County Clare.
Galway Bay FM reports that the club’s fundraising campaign reached the €1.5 million mark. The winner of the house, which was the main prize in the draw, is a resident of Clare. The specific details of the draw, including when the winner was announced, were not included in the initial report.
