It was estab- lished by the Sisters of Charity on July 16, 1891, in a little home on Forbes street, not far from the site of the present magnificent St. Paul’s Cathedral.

[n 81 years it has cared for 5,195 women and 10,546 chil- dren, and is now receiving yearly approximately 100 little waifs, securing permanent homes for these children, where they can develop into useful Christian men and women. It provides for the unfortunate girl and her innocent offspring and cares for mothers and their children who have no means.
