Message from the President
Collège Sainte-Marcelline holds a special place in my life. I studied there, as did my brother, and my mother was part of the establishment of this Foundation. In our family, we believe deeply in the school’s mission and in the impact a Marcelline education can have on a child’s life.
Today, I am privileged to continuing this mission alongside a committed board of directors who share the same conviction. Supporting the school means investing in the development, personal growth and future of our children.
Every donation counts. Every idea counts. Every act of involvement counts.
Would you like to support the Foundation, contribute to a project or simply speak with us? Write to me directly. I would love to meet you!Once a Marcelline, always a Marcelline.
Together, let us make this mission shine — it has been transforming lives for generations.
Me Chanel Alepin

The Role of the Foundation
The Foundation of Collège Sainte-Marcelline is an independent non-profit organization whose mission is to support the school’s educational work. It collects donations, manages funds and awards bursaries to students in need, in complete confidentiality and with rigour.
It plays an essential role in three areas:
- Assisting students facing unexpected financial difficulties, through emergency bursaries, awarded at any time, based on the urgency of the need.
- Accompanying deserving students over the long term, through support bursaries, awarded annually based on the needs and merit of each person.
- Funding projects and equipment that enhance school life for the entire community.
SCHOLARSHIP
Financial Assistance Scholarship Program
The Foundation of Collège Sainte-Marcelline has, among other things, the mission of supporting students and their families when financial circumstances compromise the continuation of their educational journey at the Collège.
In this spirit of solidarity and mutual assistance, the Foundation offers families who are in need the possibility each year to submit an application for a financial assistance scholarship. This one-time assistance aims to contribute to a student’s tuition fees and to promote the continuity of their educational journey within Collège Sainte-Marcelline.
Submit an application
Parents who wish to submit an application for financial assistance are invited to submit their application by completing the form no later than June 1 to Ms. Massoud, by email.
In order to allow the scholarship committee to assess the situation in a fair and equitable manner, the application must include the information and documents necessary for the analysis of the family’s financial situation.
All applications are treated with discretion and confidentiality.
Each file is then subject to a careful analysis by the scholarship committee. When necessary, additional information will be requested from the parents in order to allow for a complete assessment of the application.
Following the analysis and approval process, the families concerned will be informed of the decision. When a scholarship is granted, the amount of the financial assistance is applied directly to the student’s tuition fees. Each scholarship is non-renewable and the decisions are final.
Deadline: June 1
We encourage families who wish to submit an application to do so before this date. The Foundation cannot guarantee that an application received after June 1 can be considered.
We therefore invite families who feel the need to not hesitate to submit an application. Each file will be received with respect, kindness and confidentiality.
