Jacques Brion Scholarship
In 2021, AFMM launched the 1st of an annual fundraiser for a Jacques Brion Scholarship in honor of Jacques Brion, who was instrumental in founding the Alliance Française Miami Metro and became its first President in 2018. Jacques worked tirelessly with the French authorities to obtain the official accreditation of the AFMM and firmly believed that South Florida deserved a great Alliance to promote the French language and francophone culture.
The Jacques Brion Scholarship reaches out to multiple recipients:
- Students, to obtain proficiency in speaking the French language, are granted one full year tuition (4 sessions of 12 weeks) of group classes.
- Teachers, (even if not teaching at AFMM) to obtain accreditation in teaching the French language in all schools or language centers requiring a FLE (French as a foreign language) certification, are granted a 2-year tuition for a Master* at ICEFI**.
- Our AFMM infrastructure, for specific tangible projects in our AFMM classrooms and office.
