Drumoghill Chapel Restoration Project

It was great to see a nice article about our fundraising draw in the Donegal this week 🎉

12/10/2025

Our fundraising draw raised an unbelievable total of €104,222.33, after all prize money was paid! 🎉🎉🎉.

We ran the draw at the Manor Resource Centre recently, and it and marked the culmination of over 20 weeks of dedicated fundraising efforts. It was a wonderful community evening of music and craic, as 8 lucky people won some amazing cash prizes.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who supported the draw in any way. This includes those who bought and sold tickets, the premises, businesses, shows and events that kindly facilitated ticket sales, and the committed sales teams, whose tireless efforts helped make this campaign such a success.

We would also like to thank all who made donations towards the draw, and to the draw sponsors:
McNamee Building Services
MH Associates
Frank Morning Fitted Furniture LTD
Patrick Meehan Motolec
Colm Dillon Cars

A special word of gratitude goes to the draw organisers, Frank and Pat, for keeping the momentum going throughout the fundraising campaign.

Funds raised will go directly toward the ongoing restoration of Drumoghill Chapel, helping to preserve this important part of the community’s heritage for generations to come.

Take a look at some photos from the evening 📷

A date for your calendars! Hope you can all make it, it's sure to be a fantastic day raising funds for the restoration project 🎉🚗🚜

The Saint Columba's Church Drumoghill Charity Road Run takes place on Sunday February 16th to help raise vital monies to oversee the finish of the local church in Drumoghill, County Donegal, that underwent a mammoth restoration project that included internal and external walls, floors, windows and not forgetting the roof.
Thankfully the bulk of the tough labour has been done, now we hope to make a final push so we can all get back to prayer in Drumoghill again. 🙏

All members of the parish and further afield are invited to attend whether you drive a tractor, car, van, lorry, bus or bike, even the keen walkers amongst us will be looked after, we would love to see you at Saint Columba's in Drumoghill.
All walkers will gather at Lagan Harps/Manor Main Street for the 1PM SHARP start, walking up through Manor village, up Errity turning right at Ned Brownes and right again then downhill into Drumoghill and over the ramp.
{Signs will be in place to help} ..

Father Martin {PP} will also be on hand with the chequered flag to wave off each Car, Truck or Tractor as they make their way around a route to be announced.
{Light refreshments served at the car park}

This is a non priced fundraising day, whatever is suitable for every member of the community is most welcome.
We hope to see you all there !
