A group of local students are coming together to highlight that poverty effects people throughout the country every day of the year by running the St Vincent de Paul’s Ennis charity shop for 24 hours. This year the 4GC class at Gaelcholáiste an Chláir will manage and run the local St Vincent de Paul charity shop here in Ennis for 24 hours. “I’ve never worked behind a till before so it will be a new experience for me as well as supporting the St Vincent de Paul’s work”. Ms McNamara also paid tribute to the St Vincent de Paul, with James Dineen working with the school over the years on social awareness projects as well as supporting students with work experience and community involvement. A fundraising page for donations has been set up at: www.gofundme.com/f/poverty-is-247-let039s-help-st-vincent-de-paul“Both St Vincent de Paul and us the 4GC Transition Year class at Gaelcholáiste an Chláir would very much appreciate your help and support.
