"Donations"

 

We are delighted to advise that the Minister for Planning, The Hon. Kristina Keneally MP, has just announced a Grant of $30,000 as part of the NSW Heritage Grants 2009-11 to enable completion of the conservation of the 1890 French Puget Organ. In addition, we have been granted a further $10,000 “kick-start funding”. This brings to three the number of Grants, in total $66,250, made available for the conservation of this instrument, recognising its importance and uniqueness in Australian history. It is also a tribute to The Society of the Sacred Heart which has owned and cared for the organ since it was installed in the Convent in Bordeaux in 1890 and subsequently sent to Australia in 1904.

We thank our many donors for their continuing support. We must continue to raise funds to pay the balance of the installation costs.  

If you wish Receipt for tax deduction please make cheque payable to Kincoppal-Rose Bay School Building Fund – Chapel. If not please make cheques payable to Kincoppal-Rose Bay Chapel Society.  

All donations to be sent to 47 Moola Parade, Chatswood NSW 2067.
