Overseas Humanitarian Project – THANK YOU!

LAP FUNDRAISING COLLECTION

Due to the wonderful generosity of our parishioners, a total of $3,000 was raised for LAP at our last weekend collection at our Masses.

These funds (plus those accrued from the regular, generous pledge-givers) will be urgently sent up to the LAP team in Jakarta to assist them in their ongoing care for the HIV AIDS children.

If you were away and would like to contribute, please feel free to use the pledge cards located in the church foyer or contact the Parish office who would be pleased to help you set up a once-off or regular contribution to support the children living with HIV AIDS.

Thank you again for your prayers and financial support – and to those generous people who set and served the morning tea and cleaned up afterwards.

NEWS from LAP in JAKARTA

Over the past twelve years your contributions have supported the LAP team in Indonesia caring for poverty-stricken children living with HIV AIDS.

We have recently received from LAP their budget for this year which aims to allocate the donations from OLMC to three main initiatives:

  • Nutrition and Medical support for children (50%)
  • Enable Case Managers to visit children at home or accompany them on hospital visits (25%)
  • Conduct support group activities for adolescents to build their resilience to the stigma associated with their health condition (25%).

The team in Jakarta wanted us to know how grateful they are for your support as we prepare for our next fundraising collection in July.

Thank you, Parish LAP Fundraising Team
