TolearnmoreabouttheJFM,visitwww.jewishfoundation.org LEGACY Providence graduates making an impact P rovidence offers Christ-centred undergraduate and graduate education through three different institutions: Providence University College, Providence Theological Seminary and Mile Two Discipleship School. An interdenominational institution, Providence teaches people to grow in knowledge and character for leadership and service. Providence, located on 100 acres about 50 kilometres south of Winnipeg, is the largest self-standing Christian educational institution in Manitoba. Our alumni are positively impacting churches, schools, businesses, industry, and government as servant leaders. Michelle, a graduate from the Youth Leadership program said, "I learned and grew so much during my time at Providence, academically, spiritually, and emotionally. I also grew in my leadership abilities through the teaching, role models, and experience as a Residence Assistant in my second year. I've always been drawn to those less fortunate. While at Providence, I was connected to a non-profit children's and youth outreach organization in Winnipeg's inner city. Since graduating from Providence, I've worked there full-time as the Teen Program Co-ordinator and have been able to show God's love and share hope to many youth whose lives are full of abandonment, pain, and struggles." The Providence Legacy Fund was established to help ensure that the mission of Providence continues into the future. The Fund accepts donations of cash, life insurance, RRSPs, RRIFs, securities, annuities, charitable remainder trusts, and estate bequests. Your gift to the Legacy Fund today ensures that Providence will fulfil its mission tomorrow.
