Fountain Academy Students Making an Impact!

Our Fountain Academy students recently supported a Nova Scotia family through the Feed Nova Scotia campaign. Over $300 and a host of donations of gifts were contributed by the boys for this very worthy cause.


Last week we received a beautifully hand drawn Christmas card from John Munyoki, a boy from Kenya that we sponsor through Chalice.  John lives with his parents and two brothers in a three room brick house without running water or electricity.  Because of the generosity of the boys of Sacred Heart, and the initiative of our current grade 9 class who began this project two years ago, John can attend school and his family is supported.  The cost of sponsorship, $33 a month, is an ongoing commitment we have made, and if you would like to help the boys in their support of John, please feel free to make a small donation to the cause with a cheque made out to Sacred Heart School of Halifax.  Mark the envelope to Mr. Robert Marchand's attention and he will see that it gets to John and his family.
