From all of us here at the Peoria Irish Fest, we would like to extend a THANK YOU to all of our 2019 sponsors!
In the 25 years that I have been chair of the Peoria Irish Fest/ Erin Feis the Irish community has never let us down. The response for donations to help pay for the cost of 2020 exceeded our exception. While I expected some help, I was overwhelmed by the numbers, the commits and the desire to help keep the Irish Culture alive in Central ILL.
We had hoped between t-shirt sales and Donation we would raise enough money to cover half of our $8000 budget. After rechecking the numbers several time we raised from t-shirt sales and donation….$9,975 We sold almost 100 t-shirt/hoodies at $3500 and received $6,475 in donations, more than double what we hoped for. There were 60 donors, 50 individuals and 10 businesses. Donation ranged from $20 to several at $500. In grateful appreciation we list them below.
