Saint Anne Shrine Restoration Fund

After more than 110 years, the Saint Anne Shrine remains a symbol of the power of faith and community pride. Although founded by French-Canadian immigrants, the shrine also houses elements that relate to people of Portuguese and Hispanic descent and of other cultural backgrounds. The Saint Anne Shrine welcomes everyone - regardless of faith and ethnicity.

This important cultural icon of our city needs your help. The Saint Anne Shrine Historical Restoration Fund Committee has pledged to raise $200,000 to bring this landmark back to immaculate condition. The renovation includes the restoration of the ceiling, walls, tiles and benches of the shrine.

Your tax-deductible donation would be greatly appreciated. Please make your donation payable to the “Saint Anne Shrine Historical Restoration Fund.”
