Cork Lady Mayoress Hosts Coffee Morning Fundraiser

The Lady Mayoress of Cork, Saoirse Hurley, is hosting a coffee morning on September 26 to benefit Marymount University Hospital & Hospice and Rainbow Club Cork. The event will take place at the Cork City Council Chambers, featuring a raffle and local business donations of baked goods. While Marymount receives some funding from the HSE, it relies heavily on donations to cover rising operational costs. Meanwhile, Bridget LeMoine and her family have successfully launched Chuggs Coffee, a mobile coffee business that has become popular at local events, focusing on customer interaction and quality service. Personal reflections on favorite mugs highlight their emotional significance and the comfort they bring during tea and coffee rituals. These diverse perspectives on community support and personal connections through beverages underscore the importance of both charity and small local businesses.
