Project Compassion
Project Compassion is the major annual
fundraising appeal of the Catholic Church. It is
organised by Caritas Australia and runs each
year throughout Lent.
Every student, the staff members, and the
families of ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ»ÆƬ participated in
activities throughout Lent at the College and
gave generous amounts of time, money and spirit to this important
appeal.
It was wonderful to see the
students participate so reverently
and respectfully in Ash Wednesday
House Liturgies at the beginning
of Lent and to witness their joyous
engagement in activities such as the
Car Wash run by Savio House and
the Game-a-thon run by Guzman
House.
Students and families also gave
generously to the fundraising drives
run by Siena and Bosco House; they
feasted on and purchased pizza,
ice cream, chocolates, ice cream
spiders, and soft drink.
They gave generously to our Project
Compassion boxes in Pastoral
Groups with Guzman 3 Pastoral
Group, led by Mr Glidden, raising an
amazing $296.35! Guzman House
raised the most money through
the Pastoral Group boxes, donating
a total of $597.70 and raised the
most money overall with a total of
$797.70.
As a community, ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ»ÆƬ
donated an amazing amount to
Project Compassion, demonstrating
kindness, compassion and support
for those in need. We are so proud
that our community continues to
support and participate in Project
Compassion each year and we look
forward to continuing this tradition
next year.
