St. James School to Receive $10,000 Grant from CL&P

Saint James School in Manchester will celebrate Valentine’s Day this year with a special gift that will come in the form of a $10,000 grant from Connecticut Light and Power.

Every year, CL&P awards energy grants to help non-profit organizations achieve energy efficiency. On Feb. 14 at 10 a.m. during a school ceremony hosted by Principal Patricia Kanute, the Rev. Kevin P. Cavanaugh, and the faculty and student body, CL&P Representative Thomas Dorsey will present the school with the Connecticut Neighborhood Assistance Act Grant.

According to Fr. Cavanaugh, Saint James will use the grant money to replace its windows. 

“We truly appreciate the generosity of CL&P. This is a wonderful opportunity for our school to begin updating our facilities as we continue to see an increase in enrollment. On behalf of our entire school community, I would like to thank Tom (Dorsey) and all of the employees of CL&P,” said Cavanaugh.
