The staff and students did a wonderful job last Wednesday raising much needed funds for the children up in the Chin Hills at the Metta Geha Orphanage. They managed to get through 10 kg of rice! There were no complaints about the canteen menu, they eagerly lined up for their plain rice and most came back for seconds! A big thank you to Morris Place IGA who kindly donated the rice for our event. We are proud of the children at St Dominic’s, they are demonstrating the qualities of a young person who is socially aware and putting ideas into action to make a difference in the world. The final count for the day was $588.10! Along with money raised from The Book Exchange, we now have a healthy donation to hand over to the Mandalay projects, which will help the children at Metta Geha. The children are so appreciative of our generous donations and we look forward to continuing our connection and supporting the beautiful children of Myanmar.
