About the Foundation
The Sacré Cœur Foundation was established in 2004 with a heartfelt mission: to support our students and enhance their educational journey. Led by a dedicated Board of Directors, the Foundation works tirelessly to provide the School with the resources needed to uphold its commitment to excellence in education.
At its core, the Foundation is about fostering a compassionate and supportive community.
