The Sisters Circle

The Sisters Circle is a Giving Society started by Bethany House two years ago and named in honor of the two Sisters of Charity who founded Bethany House. People become a member of the Sisters Circle if they give $7500 or more each year because that is the amount it costs to run the shelter for one day.

All members are able to choose the day that they would like to sponsor. Often, they choose a meaningful day like a birthday or anniversary. So far this year, the following dates have been chosen.

January 10, 11, 16, 28

February 7, 15

March 22

April 3, 7, 8, 15

May 10

June 3, 8, 11, 16, 28

August 13

September 1, 17, 21, 28

October 21, 31

November 10, 11, 30

December 27
