The opportunity to offer a child an education at Montebello Academy through sponsorship is initiated through a few different channels. Once a candidate is identified, Montebello has a series of processes by which the student can be qualified for the opportunity that we are offering through sponsorship. Once the qualification process is concluded, a search begins for sponsorship. Sponsorship may be accomplished by a single sponsor or multiple sponsors
Except in certain cases where circumstances produce a need among existing Montebello students, this program is offered specifically for new students qualified to enter Montebello for the first time. However, in the case of a sponsored student losing their sponsor, the opportunity for having a new sponsor would then be reopened.
The cost of a Montebello Academy education is approximately $5000 per year. This equates to $416 monthly. While this amount will be within reach for some individual sponsorships, others are accomplished through a team effort.
100% of your support goes to the child’s education expenses. (tuition and materials)
To make a gift, go to the “Donate” page and follow the format depending on:
Sponsorship of a child as part of a group of sponsors who will make up the amount needed, whether monthly or annually, that together represents the $4800 needed for the one-year tuition cost. Or:
Sponsorship of a child as an individual donor, either by the gift of $400 monthly or the $4800 annual amount in one donation per year.
Once your gift has been made, we will select a child, or if you prefer, you can select from among different profiles we can provide. Either way, once selected, the specific details regarding the child chosen will be provided to you.
And, of course, if information about a child waiting for a sponsor is desired before deciding to sponsor, we would be happy to respond to your request for more information if you send us your questions on this specific subject, or any other aspect of the mission of which you would be interested, through our “Contact” portal.
Yes, you may indicate a specific gift and whether it is “one-time” or recurrent. (checks or bank transfer may be preferred for larger amounts)

Yes! Email, Sponsor / Student text, voice and video platform will be provided…and for some, there is even the possibility of a personal visit (which are most often in conjunction with tourism plans)
Our Student Services Coordinator will be constantly monitoring student wellbeing, providing necessary interventions on an ongoing basis. All relevant information regarding how the sponsored student is thriving at school and progressing in their personal lives, physically and spiritually, will be shared with sponsors regularly.
