It’s My Birthday, Let’s MAKE IT RAIN!
(Do people still say that?)

Hey friends!

2025 is my 40th anniversary of moving to San Francisco. As some of you may know, I met and joined the Sisters less than two years later, making this my 38th year in the Order. That means I’ve devoted more than half my life to activism, community service, and fundraising. In my nearly 4 decades in the habit, I have contributed to raising millions of dollars for HIV/AIDS and countless other organizations.

This year, in honor of my 63rd birthday (I know, I know, I look amazing!), I am raising money for the Sisters.

If you’ve ever attended the Sisters’ Easter in the Park / Hunky Jesus contest, please donate!
If you’ve ever seen the Sisters out and about and asked for a blessing or we’ve made you smile, please donate!
If you’ve ever seen the Sisters supporting one of your events or being of service in your community, please donate.
If you’ve ever seen me out and we’ve shared a hug, a laugh, and taken a selfie, please donate!
That should include a lot of you, I am the Most Photographed Nun In the World™ after all.

Please make a meaningful gift today to support the Sisters — it would mean the world to me for our community to stand with us today!

I know times are tough, and you deserve to know where your money is going.

Donations to my birthday fundraiser will go into the Sisters’ General Fund, which helps cover organizational operating expenses, human rights activism, event production, and our semi-annual Community Grants program! Your donation will support the Sisters’ ministry and promulgation of universal joy for the queer and trans communities and our allies!

About The Sisters

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, federal tax ID number: 94-3032120.

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence® are a leading-edge Order of queer and trans nuns. We believe all people have a right to express their unique joy and beauty.

Since our first appearance in San Francisco on Easter Sunday, 1979, the Sisters have devoted ourselves to community service, ministry and outreach to those on the edges, and to promoting human rights, respect for diversity and spiritual enlightenment. We use humor and irreverent wit to expose the forces of bigotry, complacency, and guilt that chain the human spirit.
