Sr. René Bourque has been
selected as the 2009 recipient of the Junior League of Detroit’s CorPLUS Award. Established in 1987, the CorPLUS Award is given to a retiree whose volunteer
efforts exemplify the highest standards of excellence and generosity of service
focused in the City of Detroit.

students not only with academic skills, but also life skills as
goal-setting and perseverance.

Education Project from Tuesday through Thursday each week and assists at
