Everton captain Seamus Coleman makes ANOTHER charity donation

Everton captain Seamus Coleman has donated €15,000 to help a little boy's hopes of getting pioneering treatment in America.

Dan Donoher suffers from Spinal Muscular Atrophy and Scoliosis and without specialist help he has a life expectancy of between 18-24 months.

Parents Niall and Aisling Donoher set up a gofundme page last month with the target of raising the €2m required to take their son to the US for potentially life-saving treatment.

And earlier today, Blues' skipper Coleman donated €15,000 to help their cause with funds raised, so far, at over €600,000.

The DoItForDan201 twitter page wrote: "Thank you so much to @Everton and @FAIreland legend @seamiecoleman23 This means so much to Dan and his parents and brings us even closer to our goal!"

In recent weeks alone, Coleman has donated €20,000 to the Feed the Heroes charity, set up to provide food for doctors , nurses and other frontline workers helping fight the coronavirus pandemic.

The 31-year-old helps a whole host of charities and causes, including the work done by Everton in the Community.
