Raffle Update 3

Talofa Marist Family,
People are asking why we always fundraise? Ever since we started attending Marist Brothers’ schools, we have been fundraising. We sold raffle tickets, we held bazaars, we had muftis, we did wheelbarrows and we had Siva Samoa and Tausala/Manaia at Feiloaimauso Hall (as it was then called). Now we are no longer at school, but we are still fundraising!
