Put a smile on your own face tonight at a fun charity table quiz, all the while raising money for a worthwhile charity and ensuring future smiles for less fortunate children.
The charity Help Us Give Smiles or H.U.G.S works in conjunction with Terry Child Support and youth resource centre in Machakos, Kenya, a community based organisation that counters the plight of orphans and other less fortunate children. H.U.G.S. is a self-activated charity programme that gives individuals from all walks of life the opportunity to take part in overseas charity projects in Kenya for a period of two weeks.
HUGS offers everyone willing the chance to take place short-term volunteering work in Kenya. Those that travel with the charity are known as 'huggers'. HUGS has a simple mission: to bring support, education and hope to some of the world's poorest children and communities.
Tonight, February 27th, a fundraising table quiz is taking place in the Russell Court Hotel on Harcourt Street in Dublin, and all are welcome, (Team Her.ie will be taking part, so you can test your general knowledge skills against ours!).
Teams are made up of four people, and there is an entry fee of €40 per table. See you there!
