This year Aughacasla N.S. will be supporting the Bon Secours Community Initiative Sudan Appeal.
A team of volunteer clinical and support staff will travel from the Bon Secours Hospital, Tralee to Sudan for one week during Christmas 2017. This group is directed by Dr. Kamal Abdalla, Consultant Cardiologist.
Their aim is to offer practical clinical support to their peers in a rural Sudanese Hospital that cares for a substantial area and population in the face of extremely limited resources and funds.
During their visit to Sudan they also intend to reach out into the local community by offering practical support and assistance to some local schools. The schools in this area of Sudan are very poorly equipped and have little or no materials for the children. It is these practical items such as paper pencils etc that they hope the children of Aughacasla N.S. will be able to help with.
They are asking that parents and children put together these packs so they can give them directly to the children in the schools they visit in Sudan. They are not looking for expensive items just simple pencils , colours, copy’s, ruler, colouring books. etc.
Aughacasla N.S. feel that this is a great opportunity to support a local group doing great work.
If you wish to participate in the Sudan appeal please have the folders back to Aughacasla N.S. by the 1st of October.
Thank you.
