Trócaire appeal for 2020 Lenten contributions

Trócaire is asking parishioners to send in the proceeds of your Lenten efforts for this coming Pentecost weekend (30th-31st May 2020). The best way to do this would be to convert what is in your Trócaire box into an online donation. You can send it directly to Trócaire by going to the website trocaire.org or you can use the Galway Diocese’s iDonate system, by choosing Trócaire in the drop-down menu. Click here.

Trócaire’s message says: ”Every year Trócaire asks for your help during Lent to fund lifesaving programmes around the world. This year, of course, it was not possible to return Trócaire boxes through schools or parishes in the usual way. This is the worst possible timing coming just as the world’s poorest people need us most. Therefore, Trócaire are appealing to you to return your Lenten donation.’
