Little Wishes Edenderry

Little Wishes Edenderry is a non-profit organisation set up and run by local people for local people affected by cancer. 

The Little Wishes Comfort Fund was set up to provide treats for local people and families who are affected by cancer.

The generosity of the people in Edenderry has kept the Little Wishes fund going and we have helped so many people young and old, since we began in October 2012. 

Where possible we use local businesses, so the money raised in Edenderry goes back into Edenderry. 

We aim to bring a little bit of magic to the town of Edenderry and the surrounding areas. 

If you know of an individual or family who is or has been affected by Cancer please get in touch with us via telephone, Facebook, email or you can drop a nomination privately to Michael inRose Petals Florists Main Street Edenderry

overview

Founder & Chairperson

Nida Collins - RIP 04/07/17

Little Wishes Edenderry became a reality out of my personal passion to help and support people in our local area affected by cancer. Over eight years ago after my first experience with cancer I was determined to give back to those who helped me through the challenging time by raising money.

As a cancer survivor I remembered how difficult it was for people to express their feelings after a cancer diagnosis. It is a very difficult time for the person experiencing cancer and their family but for friends and community it is impossible to figure out the best way to show they care.

Its ironic that over the past few months I have had another bout with cancer and an opportunity to experience first hand the need for local support. My passion now runs deep to insure Little Wishes moves in the right direction and continues to grow in the way I see it and I’m determined to bring a group of like minded people on board to insure its success.

where your money goes

All money rasied goes to providing treats to those affected by cancer in our local area.

Where possible we try our best to purchase treats locally supporting local business as they continue to support this charity.
