The Benevolent Fund

The Terenure PPU Benevolent Fund is 21 years old this year. We have a new way to contact the Benevolent Fund. It’s simple, just email us and we will handle your request in confidence.

Fundraising by the PPU provides about half of its income. It provides help to Past Pupils or their families as needs arise. It also can help current pupils and projects associated with The College.

Who Makes it Happen?


A group of Past Pupils and others associated with The College meet regularly and decide how best to meet the requests for help that have been received. These requests can reach the Fund committee in many ways but usually through the PPU office (new email address available now) or by phone to The College or any of the Committee Members. Sometimes a third-party makes the contact and a committee member then tries to see what can be done,

Frequently, needs arise urgently between meetings and 2 or 3 committee members decide on how to deal with these situations by phone. At the next meeting the rest of the committee and if appropriate the Trustees are updated. All requests are considered in complete confidence so that only those people involved directly know the identity of the party involved.

Here Are Some Examples Of The Fund's Work In The Last 10 Years:

  • Organizing and paying for car repairs to help a Past Pupil with mobility needs to get his car through its NCT.
  • Paying for repairs to secure a Past Pupil’s home after a burglary.
  • Helping Past Pupils in financial need towards their children’s school fees.
  • Giving short term loans to Past Pupils who would have to borrow from moneylenders otherwise.
  • Contributing to Medical Expenses of Past Pupils or their family.
  • Providing food vouchers to Past Pupils on very limited incomes.
  • Financing the Fr Hegarty Foreign Language Bursar at The College Prizegiving.
  • Getting a new boiler for a Past Pupil with no heat in his house for months.
  • Sometimes people contact us directly and sometimes friends let us know where there is a need and make the contact with us.
