"We are very grateful for your support and generosity in helping to progress our project"
Please pass on the appreciation of my colleagues and me to your colleagues and the Trustees of the
Community Fund. The support you have given us enables us to support the Foodbanks and Larders at key crisis points throughout the year.
Thank you for approving the Community Grant for the children's Christmas parties and Meet and Eat Community Xmas Buffet. We are really grateful to for the support that allows us to make all their days special.
We would like to express our thanks for your very kind donation towards the cost of our P7 residential visit. This money will really help us on our way in raising the funds to enable all children in the class to attend the visit. This gives them a great start to their P7 year and lays down a great foundation for their learning.
