An Exciting Partnership with The Little Bit Foundation!
For members of our Ursuline community, the season of Serviam is one that never ends. We cultivate an understanding that all our relationships are rooted in our relationship with God and our Gospel call to service. It is from this foundation of our Ursuline Mission, that Serviam becomes a way of life and continues with our students long after they leave the halls of Ursuline.
It is in that same spirit of Serviam, that we are thrilled to announce our community-wide partnership for service with The Little Bit Foundation! Whether you are a student, parent, alumna, co-worker, or board member, we hope you join us!
Established in 2001, The Little Bit Foundation is committed to breaking down barriers to learning for students living in poverty through partnerships and programs that serve the needs of the whole child. Our aim is to empower students to achieve their academic goals and dreams for the future, while leaving an imprint of love and hope on young lives for whom a little bit means a lot.
Every Little Bit Counts and we are thrilled to announce our partnership with The Little Bit Foundation!
There are Multiple Ways You Can Get Involved!
Story Time Program
Little Bit is looking for people to donate books for their Storytime Program You can purchase books using our amazon book wish list and send them directly to Ursuline. They are also looking for people to make video recordings of the book so they can share with students to read along.
This project is geared towards all members of our UA community.
