Event Details
The Bishop’s/Champlain Student Refugee Sponsorship Committee is holding their annual Used Book Sale at the Lennoxville United Church Hall, Lennoxville (located at 6 Church street in Lennoxville) from Thursday, October 24 to Saturday, October 26. All books are 1$ or less. Everything from children’s books to fiction to cookbooks and more. French books also.
The Bishop’s/Champlain Student Refugee Sponsorship Committee has been bringing students to our campus from various United Nations refugee camps for 27 years.
We have sponsored over 48 students during this time. We work with World University Services of Canada (WUSC), to identify young people who are ready and prepared to enter either CÉGEP or University, and who have fled their homes due to war and persecution.
We are responsible for integrating these students into their new home, and meeting their financial, psychological, and educational needs for one year. They do not return to their previous countries; they become Canadians!
Therefore, we have several fundraising events each year to allow us to continue with this important work! Thank you for your continued support.
