This November, members of the Ursuline Development Team traveled to the Northeast to strengthen connections with alumnae living along the East Coast. Chief Development Officer Mimi Bason, Senior Director of Development Christina Miller '95, Director of Alumnae Claire Webb '97, and President Dr. Andrea Shurley spent several days meeting with graduates who continue to carry Ursuline’s traditions, education, and values into their lives and communities.

The visit began in New York City, where the team hosted a dinner that brought together 35 alumnae from classes spanning multiple decades. The evening was filled with shared memories, personal updates, and the unmistakable bond that comes from a shared Ursuline experience.

The outreach continued as Christina and Claire traveled by train to Philadelphia, where they met Kim Martinez Wright ‘97 and Rachel Jeanes ‘07 for lunch and meaningful conversation. Meanwhile, Mimi journeyed to Boston to visit with Lisa Mullan Perkins '91, extending the spirit of connection even farther up the coast.

These gatherings reaffirm that Ursuline’s sisterhood endures; wherever life takes our alumnae, the relationships formed at UA remain strong.

The school looks forward to planning more regional visits in the months ahead. Keep an eye on Engage@UA for upcoming opportunities to connect.
