Remote Tutors for Haitian Students

Work has begun at Felician Mission: Haiti to enroll students from Jacmel in Madonna University’s online bachelor’s degree program.

Work has begun at Felician Mission: Haiti to enroll students from Jacmel in Madonna University’s online bachelor’s degree program, and the Felician Volunteers in Mission (VIM) are lending a hand. In order to be accepted to the Madonna program, students must first pass an English proficiency exam. That’s where VIM has stepped in – offering a remote tutoring program that connects volunteers in the United States with students in Haiti via Zoom to help them practice their English. Two students are currently meeting with tutors, with hopes of acceptance into the Madonna program. This opportunity to earn a college degree can make all the difference in the lives of the people in Haiti, empowering them to improve their own situations and their communities.

More tutors are always needed. If you’d like to make a difference in the lives of Haitian students from your own home, please complete the VIM application online. Applicants must complete a screening process, including a background check, before being matched with a student.

Serving where needed since 1874

Founded in Poland in 1855, the Felician Sisters are a congregation of women religious inspired by the spiritual ideals of their foundress, Blessed Mary Angela Truszkowska, and Saints Francis of Assisi, Clare of Assisi and Felix of Cantalice. Arriving in North America in 1874 following Blessed Mary Angela’s directive “to serve where needed,” they helped to weave the social service system. Today, the Felician Sisters founded, sponsor or support through the presence of our sisters, more than 40 ministries – all continuing to evolve to meet the needs of the people they serve.
