For 23 years, Fred Vautour worked the overnight shift as a janitor at Boston College, ensuring the campus was ready for students each morning.

But his dedication went beyond just cleaning classrooms—he had a long-term plan in mind.

Thanks to Boston College’s employee tuition benefit, all five of his children were able to attend the prestigious university without paying tuition, saving the family nearly $700,000 in education costs.

Each of his children worked hard to get accepted, and Fred’s years of quiet dedication made their dreams possible. This story is subtle evidence that a parent’s love and sacrifice are the greatest assets, capable of unlocking every door to success.
