The Humanity Ball in Tralee on New Year’s Eve raised €250,000 for three charities.

The ball was held in the Ballygarry Estate Hotel and Spa on New Year’s Eve, and was spearheaded by Stephen Stack and Seán Ryan among others.

It aimed to raise €150,000, but surpassed this to raise a quarter of a million euro from this event alone.

Stephen Stack says it was a brilliant occasion.
