A 62-year-old father endures cleaning Boston College every night to help his five children enter the university. Fred Vautour works as a night-shift janitor for 15 years in the academy and in return, it gives his kids, Amy, John, Michael, Thomas and Alicia, free education.
According to Boston, Vautour just earns $60,000 per year, which, evidently, can't afford a college education. But, as the dad became a Boston College worker, his children are now free to attend the university without paying that much.
In fact, Vautour revealed he is only paying $3,000 once a year for each of his children's education that made him save $51,000 from his annual cost. People reported the diligent father has been working since he was 14 years old and haven't had the chance to enter college.
Hence, Vautour chooses to continue mopping, vacuuming and sweeping Boston College's Robsham Theater every night for his kids' college degrees. He is wiping the sinks, scrubbing the toilets and polishing mirrors to give his offspring proper education, as per Boston Globe.
Vautour can be seen pushing a yellow car full of mop, broom and other cleaning supplies for the love of his children. As a reward, his kids, on the other hand, are doing their best to pay off their father's hard work.
"When I started working at BC my oldest daughter was 13 or 14," Vautour told People. "She decided she wanted to go to school there and that pushed her. She really studied as hard as she could."
Next month, Vautour's dream is about to be fulfilled as his youngest daughter is set to have his nursing degree from Boston College. Now, the proud father is secured as all of his children are college graduates through his sacrifices.
"It kind of gives you the tingles," Vautour told Boston. "We became a big BC alumni family."
