Fun Run For India

As part of our annual Edmund Rice Day celebrations, students will participate in the Fun Run for India!

Students have been asked to collect sponsors for this event. All families are encouraged to donate/sponsor through the Online Store; Junior School and Year 7 students will also receive a hard copy sponsorship form (all other students may collect a sponsorship form from Secondary Administration if they would like one).

All funds raised from sponsorship will be directed to projects in India. These include:

• MITHRA in Chennai: a home and school for disabled children who would otherwise be neglected due to poverty and the social stigma associated with disability.
• Jagruti High School in Mandal: a school for children from the tribal community of Gamit People, people with the lowest social status in India.
• Jim McGinnis’ work on the railway stations of Kolkata Feeding and clothing and consoling the poorest of the poor.
• Christian Brothers’ work with the poor in Kolkata, providing education, support to disadvantaged/underprivileged families and outreach to those most in need.

Thank you for your support.
