Caring, giving of one ' s time and energy is the spirit of Char¬ ity and Charity School of Nurs¬ ing. This everlasting inspiration of unselfishness began with a French sailor, Jean Louis, in 1763. He was concerned for the sick who were too poor to pay for medical help. In his will he stated, I bequeath in perpetuity to the founding of a hospital for the sick of New Orleans.

Our school has been in operation for eighty years with an impressive num¬ ber of 4329 graduates and many more to come in the future years. Changing times, trends, lifestyles and buildings haven ' t diminished the spirit and devo¬ tion of Charity nursing students and the other allied medical professionals. Therefore, we dedicate this yearbook not only to our past but also to our future because as students of Charity, we are a mirror image of Charity ' s past history of dedication.
