Another Landmark for the OCS Bursary Fund
After only five years since its inception, it is with some delight the committee reports that as of the beginning of this current academic year the fund is substantially funding four(!) pupils, all children of Old Columbans, who might not otherwise have been able to enter the college.
An achievement indeed and all the more remarkable as only 94 have responded and the society is hugely grateful to all who have done so. As there are some 3,500 OCs, just imagine the possibilities! We would sincerely like more OCs to commit to a €10 per month contribution to the Fund.
Those wishing to join in this exciting and highly important work should download a donation form from this site, complete it and return it to the College Bursar.
