Killybegs Women's Group The idea was to encourage women to get together and bring about progressive positive change in their lives. Through volunteering you are giving something back.

The Killybegs Women's group was set up in 1997 under the TÍr Boghaine project that received funding from the International Fund for Ireland (IFI) and under the direction of Maeve McGarvey, development worker at the time. Sometimes we’re too quick to complain about what’s not in our community. We don’t stop to think that as individuals; we can make things happen: by volunteering. Volunteering feels good, it helps you to connect to your community and make it a better place to live. The benefits are enormous, both to you and the community and we all have something to offer, be it Time, Talent or Expertise.

🌟 This Christmas we need your help to keep Killybegs shining for every Christmas to come! 💫

Each year local volunteers spend over 250 hours putting up and taking down our annual Christmas display. We can make those incredible volunteer's lives, and our Christmas lights, much brighter by rewiring our Main Street to make hanging and getting energy to our lights much much easier.

That's why we now need your help and every little bit of help we can get. To rewire the Main Street and to revamp our Christmas lights we must now raise a sum of over €26,000. Raising such a sum is a challenge. But we know with the support of our brilliant community we can do just that and make our annual Christmas Lights the pride of South-West Donegal.

We have set up a Go Fund Me page to allow for easy donations. Using the link below you can donate as much or as little as you're able to. We at the Community Council are incredibly grateful for any help at all that you can offer us.

And don't forget to join us this Sunday November 30th at 5.30pm as we switch on our 2025 Christmas Lights with the help of St. Mary's Choir, St. Catherine's Band and our two very special guests.

Go raibh míle maith agaibh :-)
