3G Pitch Project

April 2024 Update from Gay Mangan and Patrick Curran

“Update - All- Weather Rugby Facility fund raising breaks €520,000…………..”

A total of €520,000 donations received from past pupils and lodged with the College. Thank you to all who have contributed.

 The Classes from 1970’s are leading the way with terrific support from Classes 1972,1975,1976,1977 and 1979 who along with Classes 1959 & 1984 have made significant contributions to date. The Classes of 1988 & 1990 have also supported the project generously and great to see donations coming in from Classes 1963, 1964, 1970, and 1978 and a big shout out for Classes 1995 & 1999 who have now contributed – see graph below (Dec 2023).

We need to raise €130,000 to complete Phase 1. We have been fortunate to receive some large donations from past pupils to launch the fund raising but we want to see all past pupils involved in the project. The minimum donation that allows Rockwell claim tax relief is €250. All donations are welcome, big or small, corporate or personal, and we hope some past pupils will make larger donations to enable us progress with this project in 2024.

⁠The project is at a crucial point in fundraising now as agreement with Donors  is, if construction phase 1 is not commenced on site by December 2024 ( 8 mths time ) we have to return donations to all Donors and the project is CANCELLED.

We want to see all Class Years involved so please support Rockwell College and donate.

Best Regards,

Gay and Patrick
