MARY’S MEALS works to provide a daily meal in school for some of the world’s poorest children. Thanks to the generosity of wonderful supporters such as you, we are now reaching more than 1.2 million children every school day in 15 countries. You can assist us by donating any unwanted clothing (including belts, bags, shoes) or household textiles (including curtains and bedding) BUT NO DUVETS OR PILLOWS! Recycling the textiles generates money to help feed hungry children. A few bin bags filled with textiles could generate enough funds to feed a child with Mary’s meals for an entire school year (£3.90). Our volunteers will be visiting your parish on the weekend of 1st and 2nd September 2018. We will also be selling raffle tickets after all the Masses that weekend. Tickets cost £1 each. PLEASE NOTE: The van will collect textiles after the Sunday morning Masses only!
