STM youth sponsors high school scholars

In a letter to Father Andrew Kemberling, Devin McDaniel, on behalf of the Youth Ministry, secured sponsorship for the last high school scholars who still needed sponsors for the year 2006-2007.

Devin, who has been involved with the youth ministry at St. Thomas More in the last two years, wrote, "I would liek to tell you about a charity in the Philippines, where for only $500 we are able to send four teenagers to high school for an entire year. Without this program and sponsorship, they are not able to attend school at all. Living in the United States, we ae so lucky and privileged to attend stoon on a regular basis. I am asking to take $500 from the Children's Charity to go to these students through the Metro Infanta Foundation.

The Children's Charity that Devin mentioned above comes from the children's Sunday offering at Mass. Their total collectoin goes to the Charity Account which they themselves distribute to noncharitable organizations of their choice. Metro Infanta Foundation is fortunate to have been chosen by the youth this year.

Metro Infanta Foundation currently has at least 16 high school scholars from the Catholic schools of the Prelature of Infanta. Some sponsors have supported their scholars for a number of years. Others are began for 2006-2007.

We are now seeking sponsors for the year 2007-2008. If interested, please let us know at editor@infanta.org. A donation of at least $125 will take care of one year for one student. We recommend that you consider making a donation annually for four years to cover the cost of the entire high school course for one student.

We are pleased to present all the sponsors and scholars for 2006-2007
