Hi there,
The Lourdes Young Adults Group at Our Lady of Lourdes Seven Hills have decided to make a difference by creating our very own fundraising appeal for the Vinnies Western Sydney Community Sleepout at the Western Sydney University (WSU), Parramatta South Campus (Victoria Road, Rydalmere NSW 2116) on Thursday night from 6pm, 30th of August, 2018.
We were inspired by some examples of how as young people we can be called to reach out in solidarity with the least of our sisters and brothers in society especially those who are persecuted and the poor. We recognised that generosity is a key to unlocking the door to true financial freedom.
Through here you can easily support our efforts by making a secure donation. We would also really appreciate it if you could share our page above or comment below so more people know about it.
Those of us from the Lourdes Young Adults Group who will be sleeping out are:
Ian Epondulan
Ryan Epondulan
Eilise Lim
Mae San Diego
(If you would like to join us, let us know! The more the merrier!)
