Lourdes Easter 2015 Fundraising – Thank you!

Lourdes 2015-1

The fundraising efforts to cover the travel and accommodation costs of six 5th year students from Millstreet Community School who’ll be going to Lourdes at Easter 2015 as helpers with IHCPT – The Irish Pilgrimage Trust, has been successfully completed.  Thanks to everyone who supported Darren Kiely, Sean Guerin, Amy McSweeney, Lauren Buicke, Máire Ellen O’Connor & Andrea Guerin – whether it be through sponsorship, donations, the two cake sale or the table quiz.  A total of €4575 was raised.  €3900 of this covered the travel and accommodation costs of our students.  The remaining €675 will be split between the three groups that the students will be travelling with to support the groups in their fundraising efforts. The costs of all children or young people who travel with each group, and who are the main focus of the week in Lourdes at Easter, have their fare paid for them through the fundraising efforts of the helpers.  Once again, thank you!
