A total of 41 trusts and charitable organisations in the mid-west were told yesterday they will share the £15.4 million raised last year by the J.P. McManus Pro-Am 2000 held at Limerick Golf Club.
Limerick City Council confirmed that Mr McManus is to be honoured with the freedom of the city on March 16th. Tiger Woods and David Duval, the world's No 1 and 2 rated golfers, took part without fees in the charity event.
