Fundraising for Caritas Southwark at St Gregory’s Catholic School

In anticipation of the Good Samaritan Mass, which was to take place on the 27^th of April, students in the Senior Chaplaincy put together a simple fundraiser to be able to bring a contribution to the Cathedral.

The last week of the Lent term, they sold raffle tickets to students and staff (50p each). The student prize was some AirPods and a giant chocolate egg and for staff a hamper with lots of edible goodies. These gifts had been donated by generous families. The winning tickets were drawn at lunchtime on Friday the 31^st of March. The total amount raised from the sale of tickets was £112.55.

Although this is a humble contribution, the event engaged the Chaplaincy team to go out and talk about what Caritas Southwark has the potential do to in the community.
