Get involved

No matter what your gifts & talents are,

we have many ways for you to get involved with the Sisters of Providence. You may even find that your life is blessed for giving service!

“You get to experience people from all walks of life wanting to work in the same environment with similar ideals. The interaction and stories can be really inspiring.”

“I have a passion for history and a career as a teacher, so it seemed natural for me to start volunteering. As time passed, I began to grab any opportunity to be of service to these women, whom I’ve come to love so dearly.”

Peggy Balensuela, Providence Associate

Volunteer since 2008

There are a variety of options, from guiding tour groups and sharing your clerical skills to assisting with activities in our health care and providing transportation for sisters.
