ASEC awarded grant through the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation

Tue, May 31, 2016

The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation provides a grant to expand ASEC’s Higher Education for Sisters in Africa (HESA) program.

Among the funds approved by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation to expand the Higher Education for Sisters in Africa (HESA) Initiative, a program of the African Sisters Education Collaborative. As a result of this program, 858 Sisters in ten countries will receive support to acquire higher education credentials, including baccalaureate and master degrees, both through online distance learning and onsite in Africa.

Be a Ray of Hope

Communities across Africa are counting on Catholic Sisters, but 48 lack the education needed to carry out their important mission work. You can be a Ray of Hope for a Sister who needs you by donating to her education today.
