Dear Friends of CLinC,
You will remember reading about the problems facing Modern City Christian Community School. They will lose their classrooms at the end of the year!
Trustees have fully investigated the possibility of buying land and building a school for them. The exciting news is that, at a recent meeting, we agreed to go ahead with the project!
Thanks to ‘Modern City’ donations from trustees, CLinC has already sent £6,000 to purchase the land and cover the legal fees.
Once the land purchase is confirmed, we will send money for the foundations and first stage of the build. Hopefully as much as possible will be done before the rains in November!
We are looking at ways of raising funds for this project, estimated at around £30,000, on top of the termly support we offer to the four schools.
In the next few months we will have our usual craft and preserves tables at Cromhall Show, Under The Edge Quilters’ Exhibition, Christmas Coffee morning and the Charities Fair. There will also be a Christmas Draw with excellent prizes.
If any of you are able to send a donation, small or large, towards this project we would be very grateful. Our bank details are 08-92-99 65156449. Please reference your donation with ‘Modern City’. Thank you.
We will keep you informed of the building progress.
