Our History

Catherine McAuley Sister of Mercy

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." —Margaret Mead, Anthropologist

It all began with seven brave Sisters of Mercy who boarded a ship in Ireland with a dream.

The legacy of those seven spirited women who arrived in Pittsburgh in 1843, one of academic excellence and compassionate services to others, has lived on for more than one hundred and sixty years.

To serve the poor, the sick, the uneducated, this band of seven changed the course of countless lives with that simple yet boundless mission.
