The football club worked with Oxfam Scotland to raise awareness of poverty in the lead-up to the World Cup in South Africa during the summer.
Fans could donate through Oxfam or buy ribbons at the Celtic v Kilmarnock game on 27 March.
Money raised has gone towards the cost of setting-up ten mobile schools and training ten teachers.

It has been by no means perfect, with the side suffering a 3-0 hammering in the Champions League qualifying rounds away to Braga. Things have improved though and Celtic put in a good performance to beat Braga 3-2 in the return leg but went out 5-3 on aggregate.
