Project Compassion Appeal - ‘Be More’

Last week our Wellbeing Team counted the donations from each class. Our accumulated total so far is $97.35. The Year 6 Team has added this to our tally thermometer. They will be counting the donations every Friday and adding to our thermometer in the hope that in 4 weeks we reach our goal.

What your money can do?

$5 buys a chicken that provides eggs for a school

$10 supplies a family with a COVID19 prevention kit in a refugee camp

$20 provides a school with COVID19 prevention training

$40 provides a community with warm blankets

$70 can provide fabric to make 1000 face masks to prevent community transmission

Think about what you can do to earn money that can be donated to Project Compassion. What sacrifices can you make so that you can ‘be more’ this Lent?
