The Grace Nolan Foundation raises funds towards finding a cure, treatment, and awareness of HHT, a rare genetic disorder affecting 1.5 million people globally and 1 in 4 to 5,000 people in Ireland. The Grace Nolan Foundation was established by Mike Nolan in 2002 following the loss of his beloved daughter Grace at nine years old. 2024 marks Grace’s 25th anniversary of her passing and the event commemorates this.
The International Foundation “Cure HHT” have marked the upcoming ‘Global HHT Awareness Day’ on Grace’s birthday, June 23rd, in her honour. This is huge recognition for the amazing work the Grace Nolan Foundation has done in raising vital research funds since 2002. The Grace Nolan Foundation, in partnership with Cure HHT are supporting an exciting initiative over the next two years to raise $12 Million dollars through ‘Called to Cure – Generation to end HHT’ and the upcoming golf event will raise funds towards this goal with $35K raised so far by the Grace Nolan Foundation this year.
Commenting on their sponsorship of the event, Managing Director and Company Founder of NBM Group, Michael Galvin said:
“We are honoured to support The Grace Nolan Foundation’s Golf Classic Tournament, and the incredible work the foundation does. Not only does the event celebrate Grace’s life, but it also raises critical funds for a very serious illness.”
Mike Nolan, Founder of The Grace Nolan Foundation said:
“The Grace Nolan Foundation Golf Classic offers a day of sport, camaraderie, and heartfelt remembrance for Grace. This event is a big day for us as we commemorate Grace’s 25th Anniversary and work towards achieving our fundraising goals to find a cure for HHT.”
