Mary’s Meals
Mary’s Meals began in 2002, supplying food to a school in Malawi. Today Mary’s Meals feeds 1,667,067 children in schools every day. Many of the children do not have books, pens or pencils so Magnus began a backpack project. People are asked to give their old backpack to Mary’s Meals and if possible, to put in useful items such as copies, crayons, pencils, erasers, sharpeners, pens, pencil cases, rulers, a small ball, a towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, spoons, flip-flops etc.
For more info, see www.marysmeals.ie
The Cronan Pastoral Area are currently collecting such filled backpacks to donate to Mary’s Meals for those who need them most – items do not have to be brand new but must be in very good condition.
Please leave donations into the
Parish Office or the Sacristy during Lent.
