The Ecumenical Kermesse
Our Annual Charity Bazaar

Monaco's biggest and best charity bazaar takes place each year (usually the first Saturday in December) under the Big Tent (Chapiteau - Éspace Fontvielle). The ANNUAL ECUMENICAL KERMESSE celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2009 and is the fruit of much planning and organisation under the leadership of Jane "Widgi" D'Amico, President, and her very capable and hard working team of volunteers.  Indeed, more than 100 volunteers from several Monaco Christian communities (churches and charities) prepare and staff the annual charity Kermesse and their efforts bear the fruit of approximately 90,000 € raised for charity annually.

Happy volunteers loading jumble for delivery to the Kermesse, Wednesday, 2nd December 2009.
