My chosen Charity for this Years VHI Mini Marathon is the Kevin Bell Trust. It was on the 2nd Aug 2017 when I actually found out what this trust does. My dear friend Lee Mc Evoy suddenly passed away while holidaying abroad in Spain with his family. A phone call was made to the Kevin Bell Trust and they they were responsible for getting Lee home. KBRT have now brought home 360 loved ones to their families in Ireland from countries worldwide. The Trust repatriates approximately 10-15 loved ones back to Ireland per month. The cost of this is up to GBP12,000. Hopefully you never need to make that call but some day you might. Please donate what ever you can afford to this great trust who helps so many familys around Ireland.
