Support our Mission
The Ababa Project would be most grateful for any financial support you would be able to support us with.
​
There is a monthly special collection in aid of our Parish Mission, usually held on the first Sunday of each month, which we refer to as 'Ababa Sunday'. Any donations to this collection would be most welcomed.
​
Should you wish to make a separate donation to our cause, please speak to one of the project co-ordinators - Fr Uchenna, Dez or Beatrice. Alternatively, you can support The Ababa Project through our 'Donate' page.
Other ways you can support our Mission
We understand that not everyone is in a position to support us financially. Perhaps you could organise a fundraiser for The Ababa Project instead? Below are some ideas of previous fundraisers organised by our team.
​
Any fundraiser, no matter how big or small, would be met with great gratitude.
