Sisters injured in Kildare crash thank supporters after fundraising exceeds €833,000

Ella Hendricken, Niamh Kinsella and Alma Kinsella, aged in their 20s and 30s, and a young boy survived a head-on crash on the M9 after a wrong-way driver collided with their car while they were heading to Dublin Airport. The accident claimed the lives of five teenagers—Joe Carthy, Jack Kennedy, Alex McCarthy, Jeremy O’Brien and Kamil Pustkowski. A GoFundMe page set up for the sisters has gathered more than €833,000.

The sisters posted an update thanking family, friends and strangers for donations, prayers, well-wishes and emotional support. They highlighted the overwhelming kindness they have received from their community and across Ireland, noting how the contributions have provided practical help and comfort for the future.
