WHY WE CHOOSE RELAY FOR LIFE DONEGAL
Why Pinehill Studios chooses Relay for Life Donegal as Our Main Fundraising Event of the Year
At Pinehill Studios, community is at the heart of everything we do. Whether it’s inspiring confidence in our students, building lifelong friendships, or bringing families together through dance, we believe in creating a space where everyone feels supported, empowered, and seen. That’s why each year, when it comes to choosing a cause to rally behind, our decision is simple: Relay for Life Donegal.
A Cause That Touches Every Family
Cancer has touched so many of our families, friends, and wider community. No one is untouched. We’ve seen parents, grandparents, children, neighbours, and even some of our own dancers fight bravely through diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. Relay for Life is more than just a fundraiser, it’s a celebration of survival, a tribute to those we’ve lost, and a chance to fight back together as a community.
The Spirit of Togetherness
Relay for Life Donegal captures everything Pine Hill Studios stands for: teamwork, resilience, and hope. It’s a 24-hour event where people from every walk of life come together to walk, laugh, cry, and lift each other up. It’s powerful. It’s emotional. It’s real. And we are proud to be a part of it every single year.
Our dancers love performing at Relay. They don’t just entertain, they contribute to a meaningful cause. They learn that their talents can bring joy, comfort, and even healing. For our young students, it’s an important lesson: that dance is not just about performance, but about connection and compassion.
Giving Back with Purpose
As a local business rooted in the heart of Donegal, we believe in giving back to the people who support us every day. Relay for Life Donegal is a cause that invests directly back into cancer services in our county. Every euro raised stays local, helping Donegal families access vital support when they need it most.
We know that when we come together with our students, families, and supporters to fundraise for Relay for Life, we’re doing something that truly matters. It’s not about how much we give — it’s about showing up, standing together, and saying, “You’re not alone.”
Looking Ahead to 2026
This year, we’re capturing every moment of our Relay journey on camera, not just the performances, but the behind-the-scenes magic: the laughter, the hugs, the candlelight, the community. We want to show the world what Donegal can do when we come together. And we’re already looking forward to making Relay for Life 2026 even bigger, even more impactful, and even more full of love.
Join Us
Whether you’re a parent, a student, or a supporter, we invite you to be part of our Relay journey. Walk with us. Dance with us. Donate if you can. Share a story. Light a candle. Together, we’ll keep hope alive.
From all of us at Pinehill Studios, thank you for helping us make a difference.
