Caring for Earth...Caring for YOU!
For more than 25 years, our Dominican Sister Sharon Zayac has inspired us—and many others around the world—helping us understand the urgency of this truth:
Our care for one another and our care for Earth are intimately bound together.
Visit each week for a new video or story on how we are Caring for Earth..Caring for YOU!
Meet Sister Sharon
Sister Sharon has helped us see that caring for Earth IS caring for each other, and for the most vulnerable people of the world. Without clean air and water, healthy soil, and a reduction in the consumption of Earth’s gifts, Earth cannot sustain life.
That is why our sisters everywhere, in the U.S. and Peru, work to reduce our carbon footprint. Sometimes our efforts don’t seem enough. But without them, change will never come. Will you give today? A gift from you will go a long way to sustain our efforts to use fewer of Earth’s gifts.
