Welcome

Founded by six alumni in 1996, our association has grown to 154 members. Our main objective is to promote fellowship among former students. In keeping with the Maryknoll spirit of giving and charity, we also participate in and support various charitable events, and we also raise funds for our retired Maryknoll Sisters.

Fundraising for the Maryknoll Sisters
To show our appreciation for the Maryknoll Sisters, we will always try to raise funds for them during our events, for example, through bake sale, 50/50 draws, silent auction. Some of our talented members volunteered their time to make items, e.g. reusable environmental bags, dish cloths, scarves, to raise funds as well.

Earlier this year, we learnt that the original and one and only furnace had broken down for the Sisters. From the funds we had raised from our events, we sent the Sisters US$3,000 in March 2009 towards a new furnace.

The Motherhouse is undergoing a major renovations project. Their estimated funding need is US$12 million. Find out more - Maryknoll Sisters Renovation Project.
