Buy-a-Brick Campaign to Raise Funds for our new Jim Lynch Community Building ad Changing Facilities

Buy A Brick poster

Dear Friend,

Letterkenny Community Centre CLG have launched a Buy A Brick campaign to raise much needed funds toward the new €1.4 million development which will comprise of a community building along with new dressing rooms.

It will be known as the Jim Lynch Community Building in memory of the late councillor who was a leading figure at the centre for many years.

We have received some government funding from the Minister for Rural and Community Development (€300,000, from the Community Centre Investment Fund, and a further €100,000 from the Dormant Accounts Fund, with Donegal County Council providing a grant of €200,000.

The Community Centre is financing the rest of the balance through an AIB loan as well as this “Buy-A-Brick” scheme.

It is hope that this campaign will enable the community, at home and overseas, to play their part in contributing to the building of better facilities for all the people, young and old in our community. We are asking you for your help to contribute to our campaign by purchasing a brick for our new building. All details can be found on our Facebook Page, our website www.letcomcentre.ie, email on [email protected] or by calling Liam on 0749122761(landline) or  0863370027(mobile). Bricks can be purchased online securely by following this link www.idonate.ie/forms/lccbuyabrick or by clicking the button below.

Special laser-engraved polished granite bricks are available for purchase (€130 for an individual and €300 for a Family/Business) and these will be erected in a dedicated area in the new building.

All help is greatly appreciated!

Liam O’Donnell,

Manager
