Dear Friends, This Annual Report gives witness to our many generous partners who join us in mission – whose hearts truly are as wide as the world. From the earliest days of our congregation, men and women helped Julie to realize her expansive vision. You continue that tradition and we thank you for your generous and absolutely vital support this past year. St. Julie would, indeed, be pleased! Our hearts also rejoice in celebrating our seventeen Sister Jubilarians and the generous gift of their lives to God’s people. Still young at heart, they have grown in that age and wisdom which recognizes that God has indeed done wonderful things in and through them. With a promise of our continued prayers, Sisters Maureen Hilliard, Louise O’Reilly and Dolores Quigg, California Provincial Team With these Sisters, and all the Sisters of Notre Dame in our California Province, we thank you for helping St. Julie’s work to continue. Together, we can make a difference in our world. M I S S I O N S T A T E M E N T Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur change lives by making known God’s goodness. The mission of the community is education. In fidelity to St. Julie Billiart’s vision, the Sisters give particular attention to the needs of the poor throughout the world. 2 ANNUAL REPORT JUBILARIANS St. Julie would be pleased. “Over the years, these women have come to live with empathy and acceptance of the ambiguity and poignancy of the human condition, with belief in the beauty of ordinary lives, conviction, with gentle strength and with grace.

Carmel School in Redwood City, and growing up at Notre Dame High School, Belmont, and later still, at College of Notre Dame. Perhaps it’s not surprising, then, that Winnie Thorpe Cooper continued to remember the Sisters when she made her estate plans. After her husband, George, died, and five years after Winnie’s death, the Sisters recently received another gift from her – this time, for $25,000. Every gift from Winnie was appreciated. The friendship that prompted her gifts was appreciated. The Sisters will always be very grateful to and for Winnie, and will continue to remember her in prayer. Thank you Winnie!

SISTERS OF NOTRE DAME ANNUAL REPORT What Kind of Legacy Will You Leave Every gift is important to Sisters of Notre Dame, and shows that you share our vision. If the Sisters are one of your most important charitable causes, you can make them part of your legacy. You can leave a lasting legacy to your values as you help continue the work of Notre Dame and care for the Sisters. Other Reasons to Consider: 1. It’s simple to do. It can be as easy as including language stating, “I give ten percent of the net value of my estate to Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, California Province.” 2. You can change your mind. You can amend anything you choose, i.e., beneficiaries, amounts, etc. 3. Tax-wise, it could be beneficial for you. Gifts to Sisters of Notre Dame and other qualified charitable organizations reduce the value of your estate for estate tax purposes. 4. It’s an easy way to support Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, and we would be very grateful for your gift. How you include a gift in your will or trust depends on what you want to accomplish, and what you want to give to Sisters of Notre Dame. Here are some options: • Give a percentage of your estate — e.g., “I give 10% of the net value of my estate (as finally determined for federal estate tax purposes) to Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.” • Give a percentage of the residue of your estate — the amount left after specific bequests have been given to individuals and organizations; e.g., “I give 25% of the (rest, residue, and) remainder of my estate to Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.” • Give a specific dollar amount or item of property; e.g., “I give Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur $25,000” or “I give Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur 100 shares of IBM stock.” You can also designate how your Legacy Gift will be used. • Make the gift unrestricted — it will be used for the top priority needs identified by the Sisters; • Restrict the gift, i.e., to support retired Sisters of Notre Dame; • Memorialize or honor a loved one: “This gift is made in loving memory of my wife/ or / Sister______.” The correct legal name of Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur is Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, California Province, 1520 Ralston Ave., Belmont, CA 94002 For more information about making a Legacy gift, please contact Monica May, Director of Development (650) 486-2177, [email protected] www.snddenca.org/legacy has more information and examples about Legacy gifts. 19 VISIONS Non-Profit Org.
