  • Annual Report
    Benedictine University Annual Report 2010 | 2011 A Message from the Office of Business and Finance Charles Gregory Executive Vice President Allan Gozum Vice President of Finance hank you to everyone for helping make this a great year. We are pleased to provide you with our financial results for fiscal 2011. The University was blessed with another year of record enrollment and a second consecutive year of favorable investment returns. We ended the year with exceptional liquidity. Given the absence of a large endowment and state operating Tsupport, the balance sheet’s liquidity provides a shield against the uncertain economic environment and sets aside necessary resources to help finance future strategic initiatives. As a follow up to last year’s message, construction of the more than 400-space parking garage was completed during the year, and the renovation of the Rice Center athletic facility was substantially completed at the time of this writing.

    annual report 2020 July 1, 2019 – June 30, 2020 Restoring Hope During a Pandemic Catholic Charities’ Mobile Food Pantry May 6, 2020 table of contents Letter from the Executive Director ............................ 3 Year in Review ....................................................... 4 Programs & Services .............................................. 6 2020 By the Numbers ........................................... 12 Financials ............................................................ 14 Donors ................................................................ 15 Ways to Give ........................................................ 41 Board of Directors & Administration ........................42 Dear Friends, I pray that this note finds you healthy. As I reflect on our 2020 fiscal year, I am struck by how much our lives have changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. What began as a peaceful year transformed into a time like no other we have experienced in our lifetimes. At Catholic Charities, Diocese of Joliet, we have witnessed the devastation that the pandemic has created for so many of our neighbors who live on low incomes. On the frontline, we met countless families that lost their incomes and could no longer afford their basic living expenses. Working hours were reduced at jobs. Furloughs created months without a paycheck. All of these factors contributed to an increase in the number of individuals seeking help. The photo on the cover of this report shows hundreds of cars lined up in rows for our Mobile Food Pantry at St. Mary Immaculate Parish in Plainfield. It’s a heartbreaking visual to represent the increased need in the community. Individuals arrived hours before these events began to ensure that they would receive a box of healthy food. Some Mobile Food Pantry locations witnessed four times the number of participants than in prior months. Catholic Charities responded to this need by increasing the number of Mobile Food Pantry events around the Diocese.

  • Lisle Benedictine Women Vol
    Lisle Benedictine Women Vol. 38 No. 1 Sacred Heart Monastery June 2015 The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament proclaims God’s handiwork. Ps. 19, 1 Message from the Prioress... What is your story? What events in your life brought you to where you are now? What did you learn from various parts of your story? We have just completed the Easter Season where we have been reenergized by the stories of the life, death and Resurrection of Jesus and his encounters with many of His disciples. They also have their stories. Here at Sacred Heart Monastery we have been telling our stories. As you may well be aware, we have been having a “Tuesday Night with the Sisters” during this Year of Consecrated Life. These evenings have been prepared by our Vocation Advisory Council which consists of three Benedictine Sisters and three lay women. In January, we viewed and discussed a documentary film entitled God is the Bigger Elvis. It is the story of actress Dolores Hart “retreating” at Regina Laudis Abbey in Connecticut for a rest from her busy, stress filled acting life. Ultimately, despite a successful career of acting and while being engaged, this Come and See experience led her to enter that cloistered community. Mother Dolores Hart and the sisters in her community shared their stories. Viewing the movie and reflecting on my story, I again realized the importance of a Come and See experience. Coming from my home town in Colorado to visit the Benedictine Sisters at Sacred Heart in Lisle convinced me of my vocation.
