We encourage applicants involve the community in projects, to ensure that they and the Mission Office, are working as Partners and that they are involved where possible to ensure that it is completed as planned.

The Mission Office has funding available for the abovementioned project categories and we also support the Formation costs associated with the training of our Priests, Brothers and Sisters, within the Chevalier family. We will from time to time inspect projects, to ensure that they have been completed in accordance with the original application.
