Dublin Fire Brigade Calendar to raise funds for NCBI and the Irish Cancer Society
Release Date: Oct 26th, 2007
Irish and European Super Bantamweight title boxer Bernard Dunne joined 12 members of Dublin's Fire Brigade yesterday to launch the annual Dublin Fire Brigade Charity Calendar, which will this year see profits shared between NCBI and the Irish Cancer Society.
"Last year the calendar raised €138,000 for its chosen charities and we are hoping to see the sales increase even further this year. The funds raised will help us develop essential services for people with sight loss around the country and we're delighted to be involved with the Dublin Fire Brigade this year," commented Des Kenny, CEO of NCBI.
The calendar costs €10 and is on sale in Golden Disc stores nationwide and from the Dublin Fire Brigade website www.dfbcalendar.com. If you're interested in seeing the firemen in person, they will be taking a fire engine around Dublin in December to sell the calendar on the streets. More information can be found on the website.
