The 'Enough Enoch' fundraiser is for LGBT Ireland, Belong To and TENI.

A fundraiser for LGBT charities aiming to match Enoch Burke's court-ordered daily fines has reached over €10,000.

The 'Enough Enoch' fundraiser was set up last month, and is allocating money to three national charities, LGBT Ireland, Belong To and TENI.

Mr. Burke is subject to fines of over €20,000 for continuing to attend Wilson's Hospital School in Westmeath, where he was formerly a teacher.

The fundraiser was established by Independent South Dublin Councillor Alan Edge and he says he won't be deterred by some negative feedback:
