Console / Community Alert Fundraising Card Game
Community Council Funding Appeal 2014
Askamore Community Council would like to encourage you to please continue this commitment for one more year, starting from March 2014. This will again allow the Council to cut its debt by over €10,000, which should then be down to below €27,000 by this time next year.There will then be a change of direction as to the type of fundraising that’s being done, but this coming year is needed to put new financial plans into place.
Some of you have already committed to the second year and we are extremely grateful for this commitment to our work for the local community.
There is a lot of work ongoing in the Community Centre and there are further projects which are being investigated for their value to the community. There is a funding commitment needed to keep the work of the Council going and the work to date could not have happened with the help and financial support of the local community.
If you would like to make a contribution of any type, please contact a Community Council member.
Support your local community.
