Bóthar’s Traveling Meitheal

In celebration of Bóthar’s 15th Year Anniversary, we are organising a special travellingMeitheal that will be held in six counties all over Ireland. A detailed seminar featuring our work on the ground will be given by special members of our main project countries. We will have guest speakers from Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and also South America. Each speaker will be sharing their experiences from the field. This is a chance for Bóthar to thank our supporters for their generosity over the past 15 years and explain to them how exactly they are helping people to help themselves in the developing World. There will also be a question and answer period at the end if you require additional information. This six day event will take place in the month of October and travel to Tralee, Waterford, Dublin, Sligo, Athlone and also Limerick. Our last Meitheal took place in 1998 and we are hoping that this one will prove to be just as successful. We are always trying to raise more awareness for

Bóthar and with your help this can be accomplished.

Here is a list of the locations of our forthcoming
Travelling Meitheal:  

If you are interested in attending it would be greatly appreciated and we would be more than delighted ifyou and any members of your family or friends could make it on theday. Our chief Executive Peter Ireton will be there to thank you for your support. We will be in touch again closer to the time.
