Annual Coffee Hour Fundraiser

Since 2018, people in our diocese have raised funds through a coffee hour appeal every September, inviting individuals to give $5 to make a difference in the lives of many of our brothers and sisters living in Burundi.

Last year, parishes of the Diocese of Edmonton raised $7,257 for the Diocese of Buyé to purchase medical cards. Each card costs $5 and allows the bearer to save 80 per cent of the cost of medical care for a full year. Sadly, this coverage is out of reach for most people living in the Diocese of Buyé. 

All money raised goes directly to this worthy cause. Please forward donations from your parish directly to John Gee, diocesan treasurer, at the Synod Office. Individuals can also donate online through our website; select "Buye Medical Cards" from the dropdown menu.
