Personal campaign Keep it all Galway, Galway, IE

I'm so delighted to be standing for the Green Party in Galway City Central Ward.

I am from a large, hardworking family in the City Central ward with longstanding connections throughout the community. In my work as a nurse and in health care promotion I have spent years helping people. I have raised my family of five children in the ward.

I'll be working hard going door to door throughout the entire ward over the next few months, listening to the concerns of local people. From housing our people to green spaces for our kids to play, I want to make life better for the people of our area. But I can't do it without your support.

I need to spend:

€600 to print 5,000 leaflets so that I can leave information in letterboxes if people aren't home when I call
€250 to print 5,000 postcards that I can leave a message on, and encourage them to get in touch
€1000 on advertising in the local press

This might seem a lot, but we're up against the big parties, who have plenty of money for materials like these. Thank you so much for anything you can spare. Even €5 could make a big difference to help me get to my target and ensure a Green voice on Galway City Council.

Yours for a a greener Galway

Martina
