Our Mission

As Little Sisters of the Poor, our mission is to offer the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed as Christ, cared for as family and accompanied with dignity until God calls them to himself. Together with a diverse network of collaborators, we serve the elderly poor in over 30 countries around the world.The Little Sisters of the Poor have cared for more than 15,000 aged poor from the D.C. Metro area since our arrival 150 years ago. Again, we happily accept into our home people of all faiths and nationalities, and it is in our rules that we take only the very poor into our homes.
