Lucan Lions Club in association with Lucan’s Westside Performing Arts recently held their annual sponsored sleepover to raise funds and awareness for the Peter McVerry Trust. The event was held in Lucan’s Church of Ireland Parish Centre with 100 Westside Students  camping in for the night.

Once again, the fundraising target was exceeded and pictured above is Lucan Lions Club President Mattie McCabe presenting a cheque for €3852 to Peter McVerry who was recently visiting Lucan’s St Mary’s Parish Centre for the Justice and Peace – Lenten Talk about Families in Homelessness.

We were overwhelmed by the generosity shown by the people of Lucan and surrounding areas to our Christmas Appeal. Every cent we collect is put back into our community. Together we can make a difference to families who are in need of a helping hand.

Lucan Lions Club wishes to thank our loyal collectors at SuperValu, Tesco, and Eurospar. We also received great support from TY students in Colaiste Phadraig, Lucan Community College, Lucan Scouts and St Josephs Secondary School. Their involvement in SuperValu Bag Packing was fantastic and much appreciated by busy shoppers.

Westside Stage School held their annual Souper Sleepover in support of Lucan Lions Club. Many thanks to their Students for raising almost €4000, which will be presented to homeless charity Peter McVerry Trust.

Many thanks to everyone who supported Lucan Lions Club during their recent bucket collection at Tesco which realized a combined total of €2656.

This money will be distributed to Lucan families in need of support over Christmas.

Our Team are now looking forward to a busy month of December with our Christmas Appeal in full swing and running up to and including December 23^rd when we all look forward to taking a break with a busy 2018 schedule of events planned.
