Nagarhope Churchgate Collection
Nagarhope is a charity founded by Lucan man Fachtna 'Doc' Clandillon in 2007, educating children in Nepal. He lived in Nepal for 15 years and returned home to Ireland three years ago.
In 2014 Nagarhope Basic School was established. It started as a preschool with 20 pupils and now caters for 120 pupils through preschool and all primary classes. The local government now provides most of the salaries, also for a midday meal for pupils. But we still need to fundraise for the rest of the salaries, a school bus, extra curricular activities. In the past few months, a five classroom extension has been built, for which the government paid only a percentage, the rest to be provided by Nagarhope.
Fachtna visited the school in early September and will send an update for next week's newsletter. He was very impressed by the running of the school.
NEXT weekend, October 3rd / 4th, we will hold our annual church gate collection at both St. Mary's, Lucan and St. Patrick's, Esker. This is a vital fundraiser for Nagarhope.
We thank you in advance for your generosity.
