A Birthday Message From St. Xavier’s Academy

Students from St. Xavier’s Academy in Tamil Nadu, India shared a birthday message this week for Michael Steele, President of The Steele Family Foundation. The school was built through our Sacred Trust Project and their message reflects the impact this work creates every day.

Their songs, smiles, and short messages show what education makes possible for children who once had limited access to learning. The Sacred Trust Project began in 2013 with a simple goal, to build a safe and reliable elementary school for children in need. Today, St. Xavier’s Academy stands as a result of that commitment and continues to grow with the support of our partners and donors.

Michael’s leadership has always focused on building long-term education opportunities for disadvantaged children and youth. The voices of these students are a clear reminder of why this work matters.

We invite you to watch the three minute video message from the students and join us in celebrating the importance of education. Your support helps create stronger futures for children around the world.
