CLIONA'S FOUNDATION, IRELAND

Beyond the Moon is just a wonderful charity! We have had the great pleasure of nominating several families from Ireland to benefit from a holiday with Beyond the Moon and the difference it has made to their lives is marvellous. The smiling, carefree photos we’ve seen from the various families who have been on a holiday with this great charity are so different to the real-life situations they find themselves in, while caring for a child with a devastating illness. The break away from home gives the family a unique chance to just enjoy themselves together as a family. Beyond the Moon is different from all the other charities who offer to send families on holidays in that it accepts applications from families from countries other than Belgium. This makes them quite unique.

 

This Irish association was founded by Brendan and Terry Ring after the death in 2006 of their 16-year-old daughter Cliona, due to a brain tumor. They provide a financial boost to parents of children with a life-limiting condition.
