Moneyrea Primary School and Nursery 3rd Jul
Dear Principal Greer,
On behalf of everyone here at Assisi Animal Sanctuary, I wanted to write to express our most sincere and heartfelt thanks to the Year 4 pupils at Moneyrea Primary School for their incredibly generous donation of £240.
We were so touched to hear that the children chose to donate half of the profits from their Young Enterprise project to Assisi what a wonderfully kind and thoughtful decision, and a true testament to the compassion and character of your pupils. To show such generosity at such a young age is really something special, and it means the world to all of us here at the sanctuary.
Assisi is one of Northern Ireland's largest independent animal welfare charities. We operate a strict No-Kill policy and rescue over 700 animals every year. At any given time, around 200 animals are in our care, receiving everything they need to recover and find loving forever homes from kittens and puppies with complex care needs, to fully-grown rabbits, cats and dogs with medical or emotional challenges who need specialist care, time and patience to adjust to their new surroundings.
For each and every one of them, our goal is the same to give them a second chance, to bring them joy, show them love, and make sure they are as happy as they can be. The children's donation will help us continue to do exactly that.
We receive no government funding and rely entirely on the generosity of supporters like the pupils of Moneyrea Primary School to raise over £1.2 million every year. The kindness shown by your Year 4 class will make a very real and tangible difference to the animals in our care, and we could not be more grateful.
Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts, to every single one of the Year 4 pupils, their teacher, and all at Moneyrea Primary School.
With warmest wishes and deepest gratitude,
Helen Graham
