In August 2023 , at the age of 20, Caolan Finnegan or Stringer as he’s widely known was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer. Days after playing in the Armagh senior championship for his club Crossmaglen Rangers v Clan na Gael Stringer was preparing for surgery to remove a brain tumour. Caolan has also represented Armagh at all underage grades and is a past pupil of St Joseph’s Crossmaglen and St Colmans college Newry and played with distinction for both. Caolan with the help of his family has shown tremendous courage as he has battled the effects of the surgery and treatments which he has undergone. Unfortunately Caolans battle with cancer will continue for the immediate future, any donations will make a huge difference in supporting Caolan and his family through this difficult time.

I will be donating 16 highly sought after player issued jerseys to raise money for Caolan.

The fundraiser will end on Saturday the 20th of July. Please message my instagram account after donating, so that I have a means to contact donors after the fundraiser has closed.

I have set up this fundraiser separate to the main “Care for Caolan” gofundme page so that I can keep track of everyone who enters. When it is complete the money raised will be donated in a lump sum to Care for Caolan.

Please consider sharing the fundraiser to social media as this will help us reach more people and raise as much money as possible. Thank you :)
