Giving Tree Tribute - St. Catherine Chapel

Silver Leaf | cost: $500 each
Gold Leaf | cost: $1,000 each
Dove | cost: $5,000 each

The Adrian Dominican Sisters' Giving Tree is located in the gathering space of St. Catherine Chapel. We invite you to make specific donations to this Giving Tree as you remember a deceased loved one or honor the accomplishments or special events celebrated by family members and friends. These generous gifts will be used to meet the needs of our retired Sisters.

This Giving Tree holds special significance for the Sisters since it previously belonged to St. Joseph Academy, the first institution founded and sponsored by the Congregation.

This form is your invitation to make a donation that will be recognized with an engraved dove, a gold leaf, or a silver leaf. Thank you for your participation in this project, which will make your generosity visible to all who visit St. Catherine Chapel.
