The Province admits currently a maximum of 15 fresh students annually owing to the rising cost of the basic needs of the students such as food, healthcare, clothing, shelter and books. The training of a student till ordination is at a minimum cost of N500,000.00 annually.:
This may be a huge sum of money for some, but we appreciate whatever any man or woman of good will has to offer. So we have created further opportunities for anyone who wishes to help subsidize the training of our Dominican students as follows:
| For full sponsorship of a Dominican Brother for 1 year | =N= 500,000 |
| i. To support a Dominican Student for one year | =N= 100,000 |
| ii. To support a Dominican Student for 6 Months | =N= 50,000 |
| iii. To Support a Dominican Student for 3 Months | =N= 25,000 |
| iv. To Support a Dominican Student for 1 Month | =N= 12,500 |

Cheque (in favour of SOCIETY FOR VOCATION SUPPORT) or Cash can be paid in the Parish Office of St. Dominic's Catholic Church, Yaba, Lagos.
Furthermore, realising that our financial and material needs continue to increase, due to the increasing demand of our preaching mission. We need to re-strategize and articulate an organized and enduring response to our problems. If we must live beyond mere basic daily survival and rise to the challenge of the numerous demands of the Dominican preaching mandate, we cannot but make a prophetic leap into a future of financial stability. We need to have viable financial income-yielding investments from which we can support our various needs as they relate to training future preachers and evangelizers.
For this reason we have initiated the PROJECT VOCATION SUPPORT NETWORK-1000. In the First phase of this Project, we plan to raise one thousand (1000) persons who will give us a minimum of fifty thousand Naira (N50,000.00) (i.e. $312.50). Thus we hope to raise about fifty million Naira (N50,000,000.00) (i.e. $312,500.00) which will be kept in Vocation Support Trust Fund and invested. Everyone who identifies with SVS is encouraged to connect friends and family members to this NETWORK OF GOD. Even if someone can give as much as N1000 monthly to support this NETWORK, it will go a long way to help build it up some day. We firmly believe that this new initiative and the generous support of men and women of good will, will mark the beginning of a brighter future for our mission.
