SSJ Ministry Foundation Board
Working Together to Alleviate Ignorance, Poverty and Oppression
The Sisters of Saint Joseph of Rochester established a Sisters of Saint Joseph Ministry Foundation in 2003. Since that time the Foundation has received applications for and granted funds to support existing and new ministries affiliated with the Sisters of Saint Joseph.
At this time the Sisters of Saint Joseph Ministry Foundation Board is opening the application process to any non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose values reflect the Mission and Vision Statements of the Sisters of Saint Joseph.
An organization’s application in order to be considered should have as its purpose the alleviation of the conditions which cause ignorance, poverty, and oppression and the fostering of justice and mercy. The maximum grant awarded is $10,000.
