Assumption College for Sisters now totally sponsors 20 Sisters from developing nations each year, providing education, room, and board plus a wonderful sense of community. In order to do this, the College depends on the “Caring Basket Gala” and the generosity of our honorees, sponsors, and those who attend. The “caring basket” is reminiscent of Mother Pauline’s own basket, her constant companion even before founding the Sisters of Christian Charity.
