‘Kicking for Autism’ will see Megan Skeffington and Tori Crawford take on the unbelievable challenge of kicking a point in every county GAA ground on the island of Ireland. Building the success of last years campaign which saw the girls raise over £17,000 for Autism NI, kicking the ball over every GAA pitch in Tyrone.
The challenge starts on August 29th in Enniskillen and finishing in Omagh on September 1st. It is a very busy weekend for the girls, and their team of support, so every pound raised will spare them on.
For Damian Crawford, Tori’s father, the cause is a personal one: “Tori’s younger brother is autistic. As a family, we know how much there is to learn about autism and how important it is to feel supported. That’s why we organised Kicking for Autism. We wanted to raise awareness and stand with families who have an autism diagnosis.”
Martin, Megan's dad concluded: “We are asking everyone to consider a donation to the girls, to recognise their efforts. ALL funds raised in the Northern Ireland will be used to support Autism NI in their work. Please donate what you can to these two inspirational girls. Make sure to come out and support the girls in your local county grounds!
