What your money did

1537

In recent weeks hundreds of you have contributed to our Mary’s Meals project to build a school kitchen in Malawi for the 1221 pupils who are enrolled at the Kholoni Primary School in Mchinii, and then for the 746 pupils at St Joseph’s Primary in Kasungu.

The £7000 required for the first school reached Mary’s Meals some weeks ago and the building was opened and serving meals yesterday.

Here it is:


We have a lot to do today but there is an excellent chance that the £7000 required for St Joseph’s will be raised and in Mary’s Meals account before 470 of us sit down in the Kerrydale Suite for the CQteN St Patrick’s Day dinner tonight.

Here’s what you’ve done.  You have funded two facilities which between them will feed 1967 children, all of whom live below the UN measure of absolute poverty, in the 17th poorest country in the world.

Most days, for almost all children, this will be their main meal, it will often be their only meal.  As a result, they will attend school in greater numbers, 30% greater, if they are an average Mary’s Meals, Malawi, school.  They will gain a better education and have better opportunities in life.  They will build stronger bodies, more able to resist infection.  Child mortality will fall.

The spirit of Brother Walfrid, of Celtic, is alive within you.  You can get involved here.

See you at the party!

Seville, The Celtic Movement, launches tonight.

“CNN reported that on the day before the game 3% of the earth’s flying population were all headed for Seville and were sporting a Celtic scarf – a statistic that no sector of industry could ignore and which would change the policy of many airlines as a result.”

  1. Tamtim- of course you are allowed an opinion but be prepared to take flak if it is badly timed our just bang out of order.

     

     

    The only other example of a complaint against charitable efforts this week was by the rabid mob on FF complaining about Albion Rovers donation to Cash for Kids. Go figure.

     

     

    Last, but not least, the only one I have seen on here saying they give to charity, was yourself. On a blog!!!

     

     

    Slightly hypocritical mate.

     

     

    Favourite Uncle – yep been a tough week for the Brennan family.

  9. I suppose the main difference between Celtic and thems re charity.

     

     

    I can’t recall Celtic ever stealing from any charity, off the top of my head, I know of three ocasions they have.

     

     

    Maybes that;s the reason a few hurting huns are denegrading our efforts.

    Aren’t you confusing “respecting” with ” agreeing”?

     

     

    I acknowledged your right to express an opinion.

     

     

    I simply disagreed with it.

    I trust all will have a ball this evening. When you lot all wake up in the morning feeling a tad off colour there will be hundreds of children in Malawi having their first meal of the day. So this isn’t the end this can only be the beginning. Well done and P67 take a bow. HH.

    Or to put it another way.

     

     

    I respect your right to express an opinion but not the opinion itself.

    You don’t post very often but you make the time to come on and have a dig at Celtic fans who are making an effort to raise money for charity and have a good time in the process.

     

     

    You have a go at them for daring to talk about it but make sure you let everyone know that you ‘have done loads’ for charity. How very humble of you. If you want to read only about football and there’s not enough of that on CQN can I recommend Come On The Hoops, the excellent Kerrydale Street, E-Tims or Celtic Minded. There’s no need for you to trouble yourself further by reading about the good works of some very well-meaning CQNers. Oh, and the fact that there are many people in Glasgow who will be hungry tonight is not the fault of anyone who posts on CQN – sad as that fact may be.

  27. The Long Wait is Over..

     

     

    Na.. Ah hiv Never Bin ..doon Liverpool Wey..

    Not even Collum can stymie the Celts tonight.

     

     

     

     

    I concur.

     

     

     

    —–

     

     

    I hope Collum realises that Jesus did Die to take away all of our sins. Collum looked like a very vulnerable person, ripe for the picking by the Masonic/Esoteric Groups.

     

     

    Naebuddy deserves to spend eternity with a lying and deceptive entity, even if he is willie bawbag.

  30. Good evening all
