The St-Justin Foundation has been working to improve access to education for nearly a century. Every year, it supports around 100 deserving students abroad through annual scholarships worth an average of CHF 1,500.
The Foundation also grants around fifteen scholarships to outstanding students from countries in the Global South, enabling them to pursue specialized studies at a Swiss university or higher education institution. These scholarships are awarded on the condition that students contribute to their local communities once they have completed their studies.
At the same time, the Foundation provides 440 affordable housing places for Swiss and international students in its student residences located in Geneva, Lausanne, Sion, Fribourg, and Zurich.
By making a donation to the St-Justin Foundation, you help educate and support younger generations from the Global South.
The St-Justin Foundation regularly organizes meetings and events to which donors are invited.
