Background: | The Congregation of Saint Martha of Prince Edward Island was founded in 1916 and was instrumental in the development of social services in PEI. They worked tirelessly in health-care facilities, schools, and in parishes on the Island, in other Canadian provinces, in the United States and in Central America. The Congregation has been incredibly generous in its support of students who attend the University of Prince Edward Island, supporting five scholarships and awards annually including the Urban McInnis Memorial Awards. These awards were established in honor of Urban McInnis, friend of students and faculty of St. Dunstan's University of Prince Edward Island and of the Sisters of St. Martha. |
