The Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine

Serving Cleveland, Canton, Kentucky and South Carolina in healthcare, education, and social services since 1851

Celebrating 175 Years of Giving From the Heart

We are proudly celebrating our 175th anniversary in 2026, marking nearly two centuries of transformational service, healing, and ministry across Ohio, Kentucky, South Carolina, and beyond. We are grateful for your continued support, and look forward to celebrating this milestone with you.

Our Story

The Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine have served the Diocese of Cleveland in health care, education and social services since 1851. Since that time, we have sisters in ministry in the Diocese of Youngstown, Kentucky, and South Carolina. You will find us in prayer settings, healthcare, parish life, pastoral care, ecology, and community outreach ministries, such as food pantries, homeless shelters, and immigrant services. We strive to remain open to where God is calling us to be.
