Brief Background:
Before Fr. Sintayhu left for Ethiopia at the end of July, he made a presentation in Glasnevin Parish Centre to parishioners of all the grouping about a housing project for the elderly that he is running in rural Addis Ababa. The outline of the project is as follows:
FR. SINTAYHU'S HOUSING PROJECT
- The plan is to build 6 housing units costing €2,000 each. The units will be built compound style with central facilities.
- Holy Faith Sisters Glasnevin (Sr. Rosaleen) have already generously donated €10,000.
- Our initial commitment is a fundraising project to furnish the completed buildings with all the necessary commodities.
To support this worthwhile project, we are planning to hold the following event:
