The Claddagh Fund--the charity established in 2009 by Dropkick Murphys founder Ken Casey--has teamed with netRaffle.org to host a raffle for an all expense paid trip to Dublin, Ireland to see Dropkick Murphys play at the Olympia Theatre on April 22, 2010. Raffle tickets are only $2 each and are available until Monday, April 12, 2010 here.
The winner will receive: Two tickets to the Thursday, April 22, 2010 Dropkick Murphys concert at the Olympia Theater in Dublin, Ireland
A meet and greet with the Dropkick Murphys and an autographed Live On Lansdowne, Boston MA DVD/CD
Three nights hotel accommodations at the Clarence Hotel (owned by U2's Bono and The Edge) in Dublin Ireland (single room/double occupancy, check-in Wednesday, April 21, 2010, check-out Saturday, April 24, 2010)
A $2,500 allowance for airfare, ground transportation and meals
A cash prize in the amount of $1,482.25 to mitigate the winner's tax liability that results from winning the raffle. This prize is withheld and paid, on behalf of the winner, directly to the IRS ($1,225.00) and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts ($257.25)
If the winner is unable to make the trip, The Claddagh Fund will offer the cash equivalent of the entire prize package.
The Claddagh Fund will be contributing all of the proceeds from this raffle through the American Ireland Fund to the Belvedere Youth Club, a children's center in Dublin, Ireland. The money will fund the "Weekend Holiday Program," a weekend retreat for inner city children who will travel free of charge to the Club's cottage in County Wexford to enjoy sports, arts and music in a relaxed environment.
