Making a Difference - The Haiti Committee's annual Student Sponsorship Drive has begun. Last year through the generosity of Holy Family sponsors, over 85 students received educational instruction that they otherwise would not have received. We even have students who are now attending college thanks to the continued support of our sponsors. We, as committee, feel strongly that providing education is one of the most important things we can do if we are going to make a difference in the lives of the people of Dupity. If you feel God is calling you to help make a difference, please call Cathy Schroering at 634-8063 before August 29th for more info.
