Welcome to Season 4 of the Mike Quirke Podcast, where we dive deeper into the realms of sports coaching, performance, and the psychology of being a sports parent and plenty more. In this episode, we explore an inspiring story of change and resilience. Meet Louise Quill, a remarkable woman from Tralee, County Kerry, recently named Kerry Person of the Year. Her journey began with a vision to create a better future for children in Tanzania. Louise founded the Tír na nÓg Orphanage, a sanctuary that has transformed the lives of countless children in one of Africa's most poverty-stricken areas. This episode introduces you to the incredible work Louise has accomplished, building a sustainable facility that supports children from infancy to adulthood, equipping them with education and opportunities to break the cycle of poverty. Discover how you can contribute to this life-changing cause, whether through child sponsorship or donations, and become a part of a story that continues to make a profound impact. Join us as we learn from Louise's journey and her unwavering commitment to fostering change, one child at a time. Help us support that change by contributing to the fundraiser I've set up for listeners of the podcast; http://bit.ly/4fypLSh
