Yes! Labouré has a proven, 20-year history of assisting more than 400 men and women in raising over $10 million dollars.

No. There are no fees for the discerner or the religious institution. We offer our services at no charge, simply to bring vocations into the Church.

A Labouré aspirant is someone who is preparing for entrance into priestly or religious life formation, who needs help resolving student loan debt, and has been accepted into The Labouré Society’s program.

No. A discerner does not need to be formally accepted or have formally completed the application process; however, he or she will need to be in serious discernment with a religious institution to participate.

There are many reasons. Notably, as a 501c3 (a non-profit organization), each donation is tax-deductible for benefactors while also qualifying as tax-free income for the aspirant. Our program supports discernment, and aspirants benefit from the expertise and encouragement of the Labouré staff, the support of their classmates, and the many formative aspects of the program. In addition, many donors value the accountability that The Labouré Society provides.

Labouré works with varying levels of student loan debt. The program has helped individuals with such debt ranging from $10,000 to those with six-figure amounts. We encourage all discerners to contact us to discuss their particular situation.

Aspirants participate in the program for a six-month period. The Labouré Society offers two, six-month programs (referred to as “classes”) each year. Aspirants may enroll in additional classes if necessary.

During the six-month class, aspirants commit a minimum of 10 hours per week to the program.

We recommend contacting us sooner rather than later. It is never too early to reach out.

In addition to dedicating themselves to Jesus Christ and His Church, aspirants promise to pray for The Labouré Society’s benefactors, aspirants, and staff!
