Congrats to the recipients of our 2025 INDAA Alumnae Awards!

We are thrilled to announce the winners of our Spring awards!  Erin Saul '00 is the winner of the Kateri Tekakwitha Young Alumna Award and JoAnn Stelmack '72 is the winner of the Sutherland Unsung Hero Award! 

Erin was nominated by Susan Karasinski '73, who highlighted Erin's extensive volunteer work with BARCS, Whispering Pig Farm, and House of Ruth. Susan described Erin as being "so generous with her time and energy" and an "advocate for the animals that don't have a voice of their own." Erin was also featured in the Winter 2024 edition of The Slate after being recognized by the Baltimore Ravens for her dedication to her community!

JoAnn was nominated by Diane Montier '86. In her nomination, Diane emphasized JoAnn's years of service to both IND and the INDAA, including working in the IND library, serving as INDAA treasurer, and planning numerous successful events to help alumnae stay connected. Diane said JoAnn is "a doer just like Sr. Hildie and deserving of this award."

Thank you again to those who attended this year's Penguin Picnic and those who continue to support our mission. And another congratulations to this year's award recipients!

INDAA in the News!

The INDAA has once again been recognized for our fundraising efforts!

We are thrilled to be able to support education in Baltimore and want to extend our gratitude to all who make our work possible.

INDAA grants $7K to local girls' Catholic high schools!

The INDAA is thrilled to announce that we were able to distribute our annual Tuition Assistance Gifts to our local all-girls' Catholic high schools!

President Maureen Ciesielski, accompanied by various board members, visited Mercy High School, The Catholic High School, Maryvale Preparatory, Mount de Sales Academy, and Notre Dame Preparatory to present each administration with a $7k check for tuition assistance.

This money will go directly toward deserving students who require aid for tuition expenses. On our visits, we were greeted with appreciation by members of administration, IND alumnae, and the amazing students themselves.

We would of course like to thank our donors as well as our Mission Committee for making this happen and keeping our mission alive!
