Aer Lingus College Football Classic To Benefit Special Olympics Ireland

Special Olympics Ireland has been chosen as the official charity of the Aer Lingus College Football Classic, per the event’s website. One euro from each ticket sold will be donated to the cause as part of the Boston College-Georgia Tech game at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland.

Earlier this month, the announcement was made on College Football Ireland’s website with a video featuring Jon Bon Jovi.

The game will feature a number of fundraising activities and special events in the build-up to the BC-GT game. On the preceding Friday, six high schools from Florida, Georgia, and New Jersey will play at Trinity College Dublin.
