There is an organization, the Labouré Society, that works to provide financial assistance and spiritual support to men and women who must resolve student loans in order to pursue their vocation to priesthood and/or religious life in the Catholic Church.
Since 2003, the Labouré Society has assisted over 230 men and women into formation. During this process, they have disbursed grants totaling over $2 million.
