GoCar are delighted to support the Make-A-Wish Crossbar Challenge taking place this weekend (11th – 13th December 2021).
This amazing initiative will involve St. Pat’s legend Conan Byrne & Shelbourne goalkeeper Brendan Clarke travelling to all 20 League of Ireland grounds where they will attempt to hit the crossbar from the halfway line!
GoCar will support the lads by supplying our GoExplore Hyundai Kona for the drive around the country.
All proceeds raised will go towards Make-A-Wish Foundation which have been making dreams come true for kids with life-threatening illnesses for more than 2 decades.
