St. Aloysius Secondary School for AIDS Orphans



  S u p p o r t    U s

Since our very modest beginnings, we have been so blessed by the many benefactors who have provided great prayer and financial support. Some have already come to St. Aloysius, from as far as North America, to volunteer their services. We know we can continue to rely on your support to help us build our permanent school and to continue to care for our needs as we continue to grow. Below we've listed a variety of financial needs. They are broken into two categories. The first is for our new building. The second is for our 2006 operating budget. The third is for our graduates program. If you are in a position to help us financially, there is information at the bottom of the page about how to make a gift. If you're not in a position to make a financial gift, please continue to pray for our work and for our students.
