Student Sponsorship Community
Join a Student Sponsorship Community
and help….
change lives!
We know that making a financial donation, especially during challenging times, is a true act of generosity. At The Cavanagh House, your support makes it possible for individuals to gain financial stability through our paid apprenticeship training in upholstery and sewing.
Our full-time apprentices earn an income of $32,000 per year while learning their trade. We recognize that sponsoring a full year on your own is not possible for most people, but together, as a community, it is absolutely attainable.
100% of donations to this campaign go directly toward a student sponsorship!
How It Works
1) Make a Sponsorship Donation
Whether it is $25 or $5,000+,or a full sponsorship, every donation contributes to a student sponsorship community. Every gift helps us move one step closer to fully sponsoring a student.
2) Get Matched with a Student
As soon as we receive your donation, you will join a growing Student Sponsorship Community and be matched with a student currently in or waiting to enter our program. Your donation begins supporting that student immediately, even before the community is full.
When combined contributions reach the $32,000 annual goal, you will be notified that the student’s yearly income has been met and that your community has been named the [Unique Community Name] Student Sponsorship Community.
3) Receive Updates
As a Community Sponsor member, you will receive:
Notifications when your community reaches its $32,000 goal
A photo and personal note from your sponsored student
Quarterly updates on your student’s training, progress, and achievements
4) Program Timelines & Continuity
At the end of the first year, your community members will be invited to renew their sponsorship for another year. If needed, we will add members to maintain a full sponsorship.
5) If Circumstances Change
If a student graduates early or leaves the program, your community will be reassigned to another student so your sponsorship continues to make an impact. We currently have a waitlist of students ready to begin training.
