Over the past two years, five St. Jerome's students have been involved in an initiative called Students for Development (SFD). Funded by the Canadian International Development Association and administered by the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada, the SFD internship program mobilizes students to work abroad on projects that promote and strengthen good governance. Each internship is worth up to $10,000.
Working in conjunction with SJU's Beyond Borders program, our SFD students have been doing remarkable. In fact, two of our students, Rebecca Mancini
(Kenya) and Adam Halpert (Philippines) were singled out in the most recent SFD publication, "On the Road to Democratic Governance: Highlights of the
2007 Students for Development Program."
Congratulations to Rebecca and Adam on their fine work in the service others!
