Africa Day! What a sunny and colourful day it was. The festival in Iveagh Gardens last Sunday brought a new energy and vibe to the city. The day was filled with music, dance, performances and overall it was a celebration of the diversity, potential and unrivalled energy of the continent.
The festival was organised by Irish Aid which is the government’s overseas aid programme. Working on behalf of Irish people, they help to tackle Africa’s most pressing issues such as poverty and hunger. Throughout May Irish Aid is supporting events celebrating African culture and the Irish African community.
So far Connector has been involved in various fundraising events in aid of Temple Street Children’s Hospital, Haiti and Movember.
As May in Ireland is blooming with African rhythm and beauty, Conor Lynch & the team have partnered with Emma Doherty, Will Lynch and Aidan Killian to show support to the Beautiful Gate – an NGO based in Cape Town, South Africa.
To raise funds, we’re hosting a comedy night at The Good Bits on May 28th. Till then Hakuna matata folks!
