Madonna School supports Quenderly Francois, a Chalice Child.
We have been supporting him for four years. Quenderly is 8 yrs old and lives in Haiti. He is doing well. He is in grade 2, attends school everyday, and he likes to sing.
We had money in the fund from last years Bend the Rules and this was forwarded to Chalice Child the amount of $444.00.
Madonna Catholic School Spring Fundraiser is fundraising with Purdys Chocolatier, just in time for Easter!
