About St. Francis College for Women

Bartholomea Capitanio, dynamic and gifted young girl, founded the congregation of the Sisters of Charity in Italy in 1832. With Vincenza Gerosa as the co-foundress, she consecrated herself wholly to God. In response to His call, Bartholomea and Vincenza wished to be visible instruments of the mercy and love of Jesus Christ, and to serve God’s people everywhere, especially in places where environments of extreme material and moral distress, where service was greatly needed.

Bartholomea responded to the needs of the people of her village and its neighboring towns by establishing schools, hospitals and youth clubs. She dedicated herself to a life of service.

Inspired by the life of Jesus, she launched the Mission of Charity. Bartholomea’s vision of charity has inspired countless young ladies for a life of service all over the world. This vision has flowered into centres for education and health, and homes for unwanted children, the aged, the disabled and the destitute.
