The subseries contains various certificates and photographs of awards and plaques that were given to the Sisters for their charitable work. The series also contains one newspaper article, written by Kelley Teahan of the London Free Press, describing the Sisters’ receipt of the first Monsignor Cook Award, and one article appearing in the Newsletter of the Diocese of London about the Sisters’ charitable work with the community. There is also a photograph of the bronze statue named “Humanity” by Peter Rice-Jones that was gifted to the Sisters by the Red Cross. This is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, information about the artist, and a brief history of the international Red Cross movement’s humanitarian origins.

The series contains records documenting the various activities of the London Donations Committee. These include charitable donations in Canada and abroad, educational bursaries given predominantly to community members in London and southwestern Ontario, as well as donor awards and recognitions received by the Sisters of St. Joseph. Records include administrative correspondence, annual reports, newsletters, press clippings, a magazine, photographs, certificates, and a plaque.

The subseries consists of short newsletters produced by the Donations Committee, providing irregular updates, often twice a year, to the Sisters on their charitable giving. The newsletter content includes goals and thematic priorities for donations, the work of particular organizations which received donations, amounts recently given, how the Donations Committee works, summaries of committee decisions, and how charitable giving expresses the Sisters’ faith and spiritual purposes. Newsletters are arranged chronologically starting with the most recent publication.
