On behalf of the Good Shepherd Mission Outreach council and the staff and students at the Fray Casimiro Institute in Honduras, I would like to thank you for your interest on the scholarship program for the students at the Fray Casimiro Institute in Olancho, HONDURAS. Your support is so critical to these students. Through our HONDURAS MISSION PROGRAM, there are 80+ students enrolled in the “Buen Pastor Bilingual” School program (K-9th) and over 600 students in the Technical Institute (6th -12th grades). The school year runs ten months, February to November.
When you sponsor a child or youth, you will: Live out the Gospel call to walk in solidarity with those in need, partner with an individual across geographic and economic divides and offer ongoing financial support and the opportunity for a better life.
GOALS
- The purpose of this program is to improve the students and their family’s quality of life by offering them the opportunity to gain a qualified education.
- The program will strive to increase parent involvement in the education of their children.
- As a sponsor, you will have the opportunity to cultivate a special relationship with your student by corresponding several times per school year.
- All selected students will be required to commit to give back by doing community service. Students will sign an agreement to provide 6 or 12 hours per week.
The scholarships are awarded ONLY to students enrolled at the Good shepherd Bilingual School or at the Fray Casimiro Institute. Be assured that 100% of your donation benefits the students; it covers tuition, uniforms, school supplies and transportation subsidies for an entire school year. The annual scholarship can be paid once a year or monthly.
Once registration is completed by the end of February, you will receive the information on your sponsor student(s).

Students, teachers, and parents are excited to end the school year successfully. Our financial support made it possible for the students to go to school this year and our letters gave them encouragement and let them know that we care. Last year we sponsored 84 students, 15 of them graduated early in December. The students and their parents would like us to pass along their profound gratitude.
I am sincerely honored to be a part of this program and I look forward to its continued success with your support and prayers.
Thank you for your generosity.
