Little Sisters of the Poor located on Harewood Rd

The Little Sisters of the Poor are an international Roman Catholic religious congregation of women founded in France in 1839 by Saint Jeanne Jugan. Their core mission is to offer a home, compassionate care, and dignity to the neediest elderly people of every race and religion.

The Jeanne Jugan Residence on Harewood Road primarily offers independent living apartments, a boarding house, and a licensed nursing facility. They rely heavily on community donations and volunteers, as the sisters do not receive major endowments. As a volunteer at Little Sisters of the Poor, you will be able to bring community to the nursing home residents through Mass, Rosary, and lunch!
