Community Resource

The VFStrong Community Library

The VFStrong Community Library aims to make books and other learning resources more accessible to children, families and residents in Vieux Fort. By creating a shared space for reading and knowledge exchange, we hope to foster a love of learning and support students of all ages.

Community Programme

Monthly Reading Showcase

In collaboration with local schools, VFStrong hosts monthly reading showcases to celebrate students, encourage a reading culture and highlight local talent. These events create a fun and supportive space for children to share their reading, stories and creativity with the community.

Scholarships

The Vieux Fort Strong Scholarships

Education can open doors to new opportunities, but the financial demands of continuing one's studies can create significant barriers for students and their families. Our scholarship programme supports graduates of the Vieux Fort Comprehensive Secondary School as they transition into tertiary education.

Education Is a Community
Responsibility

When we invest in education, we invest in stronger families, safer communities and a brighter future for Vieux Fort. Join us in supporting our education initiatives and help create more opportunities for the next generation.
