How You Can Help UsThe Centre has a staff of five. Three of these are Marist Brothers, there is also a Marist Sister and a woman tutor. We are thus able to provide a strong educational programme within the limits of the resources we have available. But there are gaps and we would welcome your help to broaden the range of topics we can offer. In the past we have had art tutors coming in from time to time, bone carvers and jewellery makers, cooks and drama teachers - all these have added something to the variety of our programme and invariably one or other of the students have been able to excel in a new way. We would be grateful if you were willing to share your special interest and expertise in some line, with the young people during their afternoon activities. And then, as we have outlined, we need funding to be able to offer the kind of education we would like to provide. The costs of rental of the property, staff salaries, administration, vehicle and transport, etc, are beyond what we receive from the Ministry and any financial help that you could give the Centre would be greatly appreciated. And we need the help of your prayers so that, with God's help, we can find the best ways to assist these needy youngsters through the difficult times of adolescence amid all the pressures that they find themselves open to - a tumultuous time of their lives and they need the support of our prayers.
