Your Donation & Message of Thanks to our Donors

As we approach the 100th anniversary of the arrival of the Benedictine Nuns at Kylemore, we cannot but think with deep gratitude of the countless friends and supporters who have helped us, over a hundred years, to develop our monastic mission here in the West of Ireland. The nuns brought great faith, very hard work and much creativity and resilience to their task. But without the generous help of many, many supporters, Kylemore could not have survived.We are profoundly grateful for all the blessings we have received, and in our daily prayers we remember every one of you who have helped us.

Times have changed greatly, but our need of your support and your friendship is now more urgent than ever. Thank you for considering making a financial gift to Kylemore Trust and its dual mission of supporting the Benedictine monastic way of life and preserving the heritage and beauty of the Kylemore estate for future generations.

If you have questions or would like to discuss any aspect of your potential support in more detail, please contact our Head of Development, Liz McConnell on 095-52059 or email development@kylemoreabbey.ie

With every blessing,

Sr Máire Hickey OSB

Abbess, Kylemore Abbey and Chair of Kylemore Trust

Led by the Benedictine nuns, Kylemore Trust* is a non-profit organisation whose mission is to support the Benedictine monastic way of life and preserve the heritage and natural beauty of the Kylemore Abbey estate.

The Trust generates funds for its mission from charitable donations and philanthropy and through income from tourism & other activities. All funds are used to support the mission of this non-profit organisation. The Trust and its associated company employs 120 staff, and contributes to the economic, cultural, social and spiritual life of Connemara and the West of Ireland.

Current funding priorities for Kylemore Trust are:

Construction of a new Monastery as a home to the growing Benedictine monastic community

 

Programme of conservation and restoration of the Estate’s Gothic Revival Church and the Victorian Walled Gardens

Developing a Spiritual Education Centre and Guest House for visitors as part of the new Monastery

 

Endowment funds to support the ongoing Estate development and Benedictine Community costs

The coronavirus pandemic has had a serious impact at Kylemore and many vital projects, including the long anticipated new Monastery construction have been affected. If you would like to support Kylemore Trust, please consider helping in one of the following ways:
