Festival makes donation to Holly Days

December 15, 2009

Putting on the greatest cultural event in Central NY is not the only accomplishment for the Great American Irish Festival this year. Consistent with their mission from the outset, the festival is once again supporting worthy local charities this holiday season. GAIF President Matt Sullivan is shown presenting a $500 check to Holly Days organizer Debbie Sterling. Holly Days has been in existence with a few different titles over the past 24 years providing toys to area children in need. They coordinate with over 10 local school district nurses to ensure that those most in need benefit during the Christmas season. Congratulations to Holly Days on another great year and to all the festival volunteers that work so hard so that such donations are possible.
