So far we have
raised, with your help, over $175,000 for
scholarships and gifts to youth sports and youth
activities in several communities including
Falmouth, Mashpee & Dudley, Massachusetts.
We are planning
our biggest fundraiser yet with donations of
signed baseballs, art, restaurant certificates, antiques
and jewelry and more!
We are more
than halfway to establishing 3 permanent endowments
with a successful fundraiser this year, so that the work
of the Jimmy Gahan Charitable Foundation can continue
throughout the foreseeable future.
If
you wish to participate through a donation of goods,
services or certificates
please contact Jim Gahan at 508-540-1266 or Sue
Hanley at 508-524-4181.
