Helping Young People Build Their Future Through Education
There is more than one educational path for a young person.
Vocational education combines knowledge with practical skills, allowing students to learn according to their interests and abilities while building a foundation for further education, employment and personal development.
For some students from rural and low-income families, the expenses associated with continuing their education can still place financial pressure on their families.
Through its Vocational High School Student Sponsorship, CRRS provides educational support to students with financial needs.
Education Is Also a Journey of Growth
Our concern is not only whether students are able to complete a program of study, but also whether education can help young people develop their abilities and gradually discover a direction for their lives.
Every student has a different family background, different abilities and a different path.
The purpose of educational sponsorship is not to determine a student’s future for them. It is to ease some of the practical pressures they face while studying, giving them greater room to pursue their own path.
From Early Exploration to Today
CRRS has been concerned with vocational education for many years.
In 2008, members of CRRS Toronto studied and reflected on the vocational education needs of students in rural China. As China’s educational environment and the needs of students have changed, vocational high school student sponsorship has become an important part of CRRS’s educational work today.
Support the China Education Project
We hope to provide practical and appropriate support during important stages of a student’s education.
