		<description><![CDATA[It is hard to put into 100 words the care that the volunteers within the CASA Breakhouse bring. These wonderful people have come from all over the world to give their time to the CASA members, always putting their needs at the forefront.  The volunteers are an absolute credit to themselves and we are blessed to have them within CASA.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The person that has dedicated his life to caring and sharing has to be my father. As well as caring for his 4 kids, all grown up now and his wife he has given all his free time to the Order of Malta Ambulance Corps which he does all voluntary. He joined up when he was about 9 years old and loves every moment of it. He has been in Lourdes a number of times helping with the sick but his favorite duty has to be the horse racing where you will see him driving the ambulance after the jockeys or standing at the last fence to administer first aid to any fallen jockey.

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote to John &#38; Francis Brennan a few years ago to tell them how much I loved their programme ‘At Your Service’. At the time I wanted to be a Hotel Manager and I thought they could tell me what it was like. We kept writing and one day John e-mailed me and said they were thinking of doing a Charity ‘At Your Service’ programme and did I know of anywhere that needed their help. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is a remote peninsula on the East coast of Ireland in the Co Louth. Cut off from the rest of the country, surrounded by the Irish sea and majestic mountains of Mourne, this mystical land filled with so many ancient legends is my home and it is called the Cooley peninsula. It is a very special place, as down through the generations, the people living there have always relied heavily on the helping hand of their neighbour for survival.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have only been involved with CASA for a short time but in that space the Caring and Sharing that i have witnessed from the community is exceptional. Donations are brought to the Breakhouse every day without fail and always given with a smile and a kind word, everything is put to good use in the CASA Shops to provide funding for our vital service. Not only have the community provided support through donations but also by giving their time as volunteers to cook or help out where they can.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It takes courage to step beyond our boundaries, leave our comfort zone, and go into unknown territory. In May 1990, two ladies from the CASA organisation visited my home in Leitrim and invited me to travel with CASA to Lourdes. I am a man, disabled because of Motor Neurone Disease. The ladies asked me to walk away from the comfort zone of my family, and spend five days with a stranger who would care for me.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Connie works as a nurse in Galway, so caring for others is her job. Even when she comes home from work, Connie thinks about her patients all day, every day; she cares for them 24/7 really.
When my father was in hospital for almost 2 months last year, Connie went to visit him every day on her breaks, making sure he had everything he needed, and keeping him entertained as he was very bored and lonely. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let me share with you a short story about Susan. Unfortunately she is no longer with us but I would like to tell you what a wonderful person she was. Susan was my niece, godchild and such a close friend. She was diagnosed with leukemia when she was 16 years old. It was the year I was pregnant with my daughter, Emma. I arrived home from living abroad to tell my family and the first person I told was Susan. She was so thrilled and asked to be Godmother. Of course I said yes, even though at that time it was not sure that she would survive her illness.]]></description>
