    Director of Development Merion Mercy Academy Merion, Pennsylvania www.merion-mercy.com THE INSTITUTION Founded in 1884 by the Religious Sisters of Mercy, Merion Mercy Academy (MMA) is an all-girls independent Catholic secondary school that has grown from a small village school to a premier, transformative educational institution rooted in Catholic values. Located on a beautiful campus along the Main Line area of Philadelphia, the Merion Mercy culture is welcoming and inclusive, enrolling 440 students from diverse geographic areas and socio-economic groups coming from over 100 feeder schools in the region. Approximately 52% of its students commute from the suburbs, 31% are from economically diverse neighborhoods in the city of Philadelphia, 12% are from New Jersey, and 5% are international students from China, Egypt, Korea, and Vietnam. Eighty percent of students are Catholic. The school’s footprint reaches wider than other private schools and continues to grow and expand, thanks, in part, to available transportation and financial aid. The school’s 47 devoted faculty, administrators, and counselors are forward-thinking teachers, mentors, and advisors who know students by name thanks to a 9:1 student/teacher ratio and an average class size of 17. Educators are focused on the process of learning, rather than on just covering content, as well as on differentiated instruction which addresses the fact that all students do not learn in the same way. They are experts in their fields, with 69% of faculty possessing advanced degrees and an average tenure of 16.1 years. Eight religious are part of the faculty/staff body, and three additional serve the school as volunteers.

    For the Connelly Foundation, 2020 started off like any other year. The focus was on implementing the strategic plan adopted in June 2019 and a long list of goals and initiatives for supporting the Foundation’s core areas of Education, Human Services, and Culture and Civic Life. And there was also an office renovation project to manage. Then, in just a few days in March, everything changed. As the COVID-19 pandemic raged through our community, the Foundation’s Board of Trustees and staff were forced to rethink strategy, process, and support – from remote work protocols to the grant process to payment procedures. Within two weeks on March 26, 2020, the Board of Trustees earmarked $2 million to COVID-19 relief efforts and on August 31, 2020, increased the Foundation’s budget by an additional $3 million to continue the response. Throughout the year, the Foundation took a proactive approach to grantmaking, reaching out to groups in the region, along with other philanthropic organizations, to see how it could help. This effort by the Connelly staff – working at home – required collaboration, flexibility, passion, and a commitment to the mission and legacy of the Foundation. Nobody will ever forget the 2020 pandemic. Not those whose lives were upended. Not those on the front lines of helping others. And certainly not those who offered financial and moral support. Overall, the Connelly Foundation increased its grants budget in 2020 by 24% to $15.4 million from $12.4 million, and nearly $7 million was devoted to COVID-19 relief, response, and recovery. The Connelly Foundation was hardly alone.

Called “God’s Spirit in Sandals,” “An Authentic American Hero,” “The Fireman’s Friar,” perhaps the name he loved and lived most was Franciscan priest. In the biography borrowed from the Holy Name Prov- ince of which he was a member, he is described as “a busy Franciscan priest who dedicated his life to serv- ing God’s people. He is known for his work with the homeless, recovering addicts, AIDS patients, and his work as chaplain to the New York City Fire Depart- ment . He found God in the hurting, the broken, the Inside this issue: suffering and the poor.” On September 25, the Opening of the Lecture Series to honor the Twentieth Anniversary of the Spiri- PC Graduates Honored for Accomplishments 2 tual Direction program, will feature a day whose inspi- ration is drawn from the life, ministry, struggles and SD Students Share on Recent Involvements 3 service of Father Judge.
