KATHLEEN MULVEY MEMORIAL PLAQUE
Born in Carlow, Kathleen Mulvey emigrated to New York as a young girl and went on to achieve remarkable success in business. Despite her accomplishments, her love for her hometown never dimmed. Mulvey's unwavering commitment to the New York Carlow Association was deeply appreciated on both sides of the Atlantic. In 2007, the Association celebrated its centenary, a testament to the enduring connections between Carlow and its diaspora.
