Davie Murphy from Youghal, with the help of his family, friends and supporters, held a very enjoyable Table Top Quiz at the Youghal Rugby Club recently. The quiz is part of ongoing fund-raising activities to help Davie’s mission to Haiti where he will help to build houses with Cork born charity Haven. Photo: Michael Hussey Youghalonline.com

Davie needs to raise €4,000 in fund-raising events and appreciates any help towards this worthy cause. Fellow Youghal natives, John O Riordan and Bobby Lee will also travel with Davie to help in the disaster zone where the terrible earthquake occurred on Tuesday 12th January 2010.

Each volunteer is required to raise a minimum of €4,000. Approximately €2,000 of this covers flights, accommodation, food and water for the duration of Build it Week. The remainder of the funds raised will go towards building materials for the houses that you will build during Build it Week.

Volunteers will live on site in basic accommodation, and will take part in all activities that go into the running of the camp as well as the construction of the new homes: roofing, plumbing, painting, medical, catering, water distribution, etc. With your help, Haven will build 300 houses across Haiti this year. Davie told Youghalonline.com that he would like to thank all the supporters, participants at the quiz, Youghal Rugby Club and especially the kind generosity of the sponsors in helping him to help Haiti. -Youghalonline.com
