Cannonball Ireland has raised a record €781,914 for the Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation - including €317,819 this year alone.

The supercar road trip, which recently finished in Naas, was attended by hundreds of locals who made donations. 

More than 250,000 spectators lined the streets nationwide to see over 200 supercars and celebrities take part, with funds boosted by Circle K’s “When You Fill, Support Jack and Jill” campaign.

The money will fund thousands of hours of specialist in-home nursing and respite care for families supported by the charity.
