Clarecastle Trócaire Volunteer Urges People To Dig Deep This Lent

A Clarecastle Trócaire volunteer is urging people to dig deep this Lent and donate generously to the charity’s humanitarian efforts in Third World countries.

Cora Guinnane travelled to Sierra Leone in November last with the organisation and met with the family who are pictured on the front of this year’s Trócaire box.

Along with her team, she saw first-hand the projects supported by the charity that are run in the West African country.

Cora says it’s important on this first day of Lent to remember the impact of the Ebola crisis – as well as last year’s mudslide, which killed hundreds.
