Fundraising for the Maryknoll Sisters
To show our appreciation for the Maryknoll Sisters, we will
always try to raise funds for them during our events, for
example, through bake sale, 50/50 draws, silent auction.
Some of our talented members volunteered their time to make
items, e.g. reusable environmental bags, dish cloths, scarves,
to raise funds as well.
Earlier this year, we learnt that the original and one and
only furnace had broken down for the Sisters. From the funds
we had raised from our events, we sent the Sisters
US$3,000 in March 2009 towards a new furnace.
The Motherhouse is undergoing a major renovations project.
Their estimated funding need is US$12 million. Find out more
