The main purpose of this event is to raise funds for the formation of future priests. As you already know, life is not cheap and everything costs money. Like any family, we have ordinary expenses that we have to pay such as food, electricity, water, telephone, health insurance, and car insurance. But we also have a very significant regular expense, which is the tuition of the brothers so that they can attend classes in the seminary. Studies cost about $25,000 per brother, each year. We currently have 6 brothers in our Province who are studying, and therefore our yearly tuition expenses are around $132,000. Although our formation directors work very hard to support the community, their income is not enough to cover all the expenses. That’s why we depend on the generosity of our friends and benefactors, and the funds we raise at events like this.

 

This event would not be possible without the support of our amazing and generous sponsors.
