"As the number of women and children we serve continues to grow, and as their needs continue to evolve, we make this St. Ann's Feast Day appeal to our friends and longtime supporters," said Sister Nancy Downing, CEO of St. Ann's Center. "We invite you to renew your investment in the work of strengthening families, nurturing community, and creating brighter futures every day."

St. Ann’s is a place where women lift each other up. A community that exists because of you. Connection is so critical for young women like Africa, who come to St. Ann’s often facing a “storm of unknowns.” Then – supported by caring peers, staff, and volunteers – women learn they don’t have to carry it all alone.

Hello, Sister Nancy Downing here with St. Ann's Center. As this new year unfolds, I want to take a moment and celebrate your impact in 2025. Women and children built pathways out of homelessness toward lasting independence with your help. The need in our region continues to grow. But thanks to you families who have lived through crisis found care, compassion, and community here at St. Ann's Center.

As Christmas arrives, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks and warmest wishes to you and your loved ones from everyone at St. Ann’s Center for Children, Youth and Families. Your commitment to St. Ann’s means more than words can express.
