Mellon foundation - Senan Ryan

Hi. My name is Senan Ryan a transition year student in Belvedere College.

I am volunteering with the Mellon Educate Trust, an Irish Charity established in 2002 to help impoverished children in South Africa access better homes and education.

In February 2025 I will travel with students from across Ireland and complete a week of working on school construction sites, participating in literacy and feeding programmes, and interacting one on one with the school children.

To participate in this opportunity I've committed to raising Eur 3,500. I am asking for your help in raising this amount. It will go directly to Mellon Educate.

During the month of January I have a number of fundraising events planned including running a kilometre for every €50 donated to this cause, bag backing in my local supermarket and more.

All donations are greatly appreciated and go directly to assist children in Capetown’s townships access education and secure a better future.

Thank you.
