Story

The McCabe Educational Trust and McCabe Pilgrimages is a partnership spanning thirty years. From small beginnings MET has now distributed approaching £3 million pounds in grant aid.

Our policy is to divide three quarters of our income between the Jeel al Amal Boys Home in Bethany, the Al Shurooq Blind School in Bethlehem and the Anand Niwas Boys Home in India.  Much of this funding is provided by regular donors specifically supporting one of these institutions. 

The other quarter of our income we give to projects selected by our trustees or to projects which have been befriended by individuals and churches.  In these cases the MET acts as a conduit for the funds, wherever possible adding Gift Aid to contributions.  A Christmas gift to needy families in Jerusalem and Bethlehem is a highlight of our year.

All of the administrative costs of the Trust are contributed by McCabe Pilgrimages, so every penny donated is sent without deduction to the projects we support.   

Your donation is safe
Our partnership with Just Giving makes giving easy  and, where applicable,  they will reclaim giftaid on your donation and add this to your contribution increasing the value by a full 25%. This benefit is available to any British resident who pays income tax. 

Donating here is simple, fast and totally secure and your details are safe.  JustGiving never pass on details to third parties or send unwanted emails.  Once you donate, they send your contribution directly to The McCabe Educational Trust making this a most efficient way to donate – saving MET time and administration costs.
