Bazaar boost for Colombia defence fund
A bazaar held in West Belfast on Saturday 14 December raised over £2,000 for the Colombia 3 Defence Fund.
Hundreds of people attended the bazaar and spent freely it seems at the many stalls. Items on sale ranged from groceries to toys and fancy household goods. However, the big attraction for the day was Kate Clark's tombola (or rickety wheel to you and me). The many superb prizes on offer attracted many punters prepared to roll up and take their chance.
Mary Maginn, one of the organisers of the bazaar told An Phoblacht, "the day was fantastic, the response from people was brilliant and as well as the money we raised, the fact that so many people supported the bazaar is a sign of the good will people in Belfast feel for Niall, Jim and Martin. We can't thank people enough, those who donated stuff, who collected it and of course the Felons for their support on the day.
