Former Nenagh College Student and current Tipperary hurling star, Barry Heffernan, receiving a cheque for €700 from school Principal, Damien Kennedy. Barry is taking part in the world “Plant the Planet” games in Kenya. A group of GAA players will take part in only the second ever All-Star, Male and Female game in Africa. This trip will include ‘Flight of the Swallows’ a group of musicians and dancers from Ireland (including many sports stars) who will participate in an authentic cross-cultural music and dance exchange with our Kenyan hosts. The target is for each participant to raise €10,000 by November. The goal is to plant one million trees in Africa in partnership with Self Help Africa who have spent decades working closely with local farmers, communities and experts to be the best at what they do. Each tree planted will represent a livelihood for an African family.
