How did it start?

Jack was diagnosed from a rare form of bone cancer called Ewings Sarcoma.

While we were in 6th year, Jack fought for 15 months.

When Jack was sick we started our first Portmarnock Fights Cancer Event.

Our First Event Held on the 23rd of February 2013. 10 Hour Basketballathon with help from

Rangers Basketball Club and the PSLC. We raised over €2,000 in one day which all

went to The Irish Cancer Society.

It was a huge success

Jack sadly passed away the following day while counting the generous donations.

We wanted to make it Bigger

We Started Planning Last October, the 6 of us got together and

started planning for this years fundraiser We made great use of social media for

example Facebook, Twitter and Instagram page to create awareness

incredibly grateful for all the support. Portmarnock Fought Cancer
