School Info
Official School Name: College Chrétien de Delmas
Total Students: 468
Number Sponsored: 294
Grades Taught: Preschool – 13th Grade
Facility: Because of gang violence near HFHC’s Delmas 28 Christian School, we had to leave our building temporarily and move to a rented facility to keep students safe and learning. Thankfully, this new location has everything we need to provide a quality education for the children.
Current Needs – Delmas
Feed a Child – During the summer, when school is out and children no longer have access to daily school meals, we step in to help. Every Friday, children gather at school for a hot, nourishing meal and a fun-filled Vacation Bible School (VBS) program. Before they head home, each child receives a bag of rice and beans to share with their family, ensuring they have food for the days ahead. This program not only feeds their bodies but also uplifts their spirit. $50 per child for the entire summer
