Student Council Food Collection for SVP

The MCS Student Council organised the Christmas food appeal, with a very generous student body making a great effort to bring in non-perishable food items. these will be used to make up food hampers for people in the Duhallow area who are facing financial difficulties this winter. The school welcomed local SVP volunteers Dan Joe O’Keefe and Eileen O’Sullivan to the schoolto collect the food items. Dan Joe spoke to students, thnaking them for their generosity and encouraging them to keep up their support and compassion for people in need. He also encouraged students to consider volunteering to help, and that SVP has branches in all colleges where they can get involved.

Thie food collection is part of the school’s facus on developing awareness of inequality in society and taking action to bring change.
