Our Student Sponsorship Program began in 2000 and involves sponsorship of students from Ecole St. Michel, the primary school and vocational school run by the Little Sisters of St. Therese, and students from St. Michel College, the secondary school in St. Michel Parish.
The cost of sponsorship is: $100 = primary student
$200 = secondary student
This amount covers the cost of tuition, uniforms, books and school supplies, a daily hot meal and vitamin for one year.
Since the beginning of the program, the number of students from both schools has increased from around 350 to close to 1200. In FY 2019, we sponsored a total of 518 students. One hundred eighty of the primary student sponsorships came from 5K proceeds. We thank you for your gift of hope.
