St. Joseph's Foundation's day to day running costs are primarily funded by grants from the Southern Health Board, Mid-Western Health Board, Department of Education, V.E.C. and National Lottery Grants. The Finance Department has the responsibility to make sure that all financial information is accurate, up to date, readily available and understandable. We assist Departmental Heads on budgeting, accounting and financial reporting and have total responsibility for payroll, debtors, creditors, pensions, insurance and information technology systems. The finance department has also the responsibility to ensure openness and transparency in all fundraising activities. FUNDRAISING The Board of St. Joseph's Foundation fundraises on a continuous basis. We are very fortunate with the generosity of the people in the area towards the services being provided here. We receive donations continuously for which we are very grateful. J.P. McMANUS PRO-AM We have been able to carry on our capital development programme over the past number of years due to in no small way to the enormous financial input provided by the J.P. McManus Pro-Am Golf Classics. This has been tremendous value to us and there is no doubt that we would not be able to continue expanding and developing our services without this financial assistance. We have improved and extended our services in the following areas: - Provision of respite for children. - Improved services for adults with severe and profound learning disability - Residential services for adults. -
To extend our day services allowing for greater integration with the
public. OTHER MAJOR EVENTS The Spring Fair and The Greyhound Benefit Meeting are two of the Foundation's most significant annual fundraising events as well as Church Gate Collections, the Register of Friends Appeal the Respite Care Fund. In addition to theses events, numerous groups and individuals organise card drives, dances, marathon runs etc. We are deeply indebted to all those who are involved in any way with our many fundraising events. We would like to thank you for your assistance and we look forward to your continued support. Tax Relief on Donations.
