Jesuit Mission Bazaar St Ignatius Riverview 9th Sept 8.30 to 4.30 pm

The annual Indian Bazaar is on 9th September from 8.30 to 4.30 pm. It is a fun filled day of rides, attractions, white elephant stall and cakes. It is co-ordinated by an Executive Committee of NSW Jesuit Mission Friends. The main policy for the running of the Bazaar is that every stall and attraction donates 100% of its profit for the work of Jesuit Mission (except for the few stalls and attractions that are hired out for the day). The Bazaar alone consistently contributes well over $100,000 each year for vital work in the developing world. St Ignatius’ College generously hosts the event on their school grounds in Riverview (it not a fundraising event for the school).
