RELAN schools, including those of the District of San Francisco New Orleans, sponsor activities and events to assist their African twin schools in meeting the cost of educating their students. As the schools partner, African students and RELAN students learn about each others’ schools and cultures, developing a global social awareness and building solidarity as members of the worldwide Lasallian family.
