Development
The origins of the Development Office for the Baltimore Province of the Christian Brothers date back to 1918 when the St. La Salle Auxiliary was found to support the operating expenses of the province and the formation of young candidates. Today, the scope has broadened to include support of the educational programs and retirements needs of the Brothers.
