Anita A. Moreland Memorial Fund
Sister Glenna Smith, O.S.B., founder and director of Benedictine Counseling Services (BCS), has announced the establishment of a fund in memory of her mother, Anita A. Moreland. On December 18, 2003, the Board of Trustees approved the establishment of the Anita A. Moreland Fund, a fund that is intended to help BCS provide counseling, educational, and psychological services to "the least of our brothers and sisters." Nita, as she was known, died on October 24, 2003, and left a legacy of love and caring for God's neediest persons. Once the fund reaches an endowed level of $1,000,000, it is estimated that a variety of programs could be initiated and at least one full-time staff member could be made available to provide services for homeless women and their children and for other needy families. We feel confident that many friends, colleagues, and family members will contribute generously to the Anita A. Moreland Memorial Fund so people in need will be served and Nita's memory will be honored in this very special way. |
