Fundraising
Mevagh Family Resource Centre will continue to fundraise in 2017-2018 through Bric- a-Brac Sales.
Raffles, and Coffee Mornings. We thank you for your generosity over the past few years and we hope that you will continue to support our fundraising efforts. Amounts raised at any of our fundraising events will be be acknowledged in the Tir Conaill Tribune and all our usual media outlets.
The fundraising allows the Centre to offer all of its programmes, courses and services at a nominal rate, therefore making it financially assessable to all.
