Mother Dolorosa Society
Mother Dolorosa was one of the three founding Dominican Sisters of Mission San Jose who started Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy in 1931. Her leadership helped the school grow in ways no one could have imagined when she and her fellow Sisters traveled up the Hill with “a statue of the Blessed Virgin, a $5 bill and their faith.” We are honored to name our planned giving society after her.
The Mother Dolorosa Society celebrates the alumnae, parents, grandparents and friends who have remembered Flintridge Sacred Heart in their estate plans. Like Mother Dolorosa, the society members have made a lasting contribution to the mission of the school and to generations of young women.
