Fund for Assistance Awards Grant to Volunteers in Mission Program

The Fund for Assistance to ROCOR has approved a financial aid grant of $3,000.00 for the upcoming Volunteers in Mission (VIM) project to Haiti on April 25-May 5. The grant will be used to help cover some of the expenses for volunteers associated with the trip. According to VIM Director Archpriest John Moses, the cost per participant is approximately $1,000.00, which only includes airfare from Fort Lauderdale, FL to Haiti.

Financial aid will be distributed based on the specific needs of volunteers, but parishes are also encouraged to raise funds to help cover the remaining costs. Those who are interested in applying for financial aid should contact Fr. John directly by phone at (540) 256-3938 or by e-mail at frj1951@yahoo.com.
