From Mexico to Lebanon: We Are 1 La Salle!
All La Salle schools in Mexico have mobilized to support the Fratelli Project in Lebanon, once again demonstrating our global solidarity as #1LaSalle. Through charity sales, benefit sports matches, lotteries, and many other activities, students of all ages, teachers, and parents participated actively, united by a common goal: to support La Salle missions for the most vulnerable.
This year, their efforts are particularly focused on the Fratelli Project, a non-formal educational center in Lebanon that educational and training opportunities to Syrian refugees and vulnerable Lebanese. Run with the Marist Brothers, this project offers catch-up classes for children and youth, training programs for adults, and support for mothers and new mothers. Did you know that among the many objectives of Fratellithere is an initiative to support first-time mothers?
Fratelli in Lebanon is one of our flagship #1LaSalle projects. Other initiatives include La Salle Pouthum in Cambodia, Zona Reina in Guatemala, Homestead in the USA, and Foyer Akwaba in Côte d’Ivoire.
You can choose to support our #1LaSalle projects by making a donation. Every contribution, no matter how small, helps ensure a better future for children and youth through education.
Results of the 2023 Mexican Fundraising Campaign: United for Rumbek
The commitment of Mexican La Salle members to Fratelli is similar to the 2023 campaign, which aimed to support our first La Salle school in the world’s youngest country: Rumbek, in South Sudan, Africa.
Today, La Salle School Rumbek has over 300 students in our #1LaSalle family.
We are proud of the incredible support shown by schools in Mexico. Their enthusiasm and dedication exemplify what it means to be part of the La Salle family worldwide. Together, across the planet, we are 1 La Salle!
