What is SND? SND stands for Sisters of Notre Dame. This group has respected so many people

regardless of their gender, age, social class, disability or skin color. Sisters of Notre Dame wanted to

help those who needed it more than others. They committed their entire lives to help the world and

try to make it a better place little by little. Franciose Blin de Bourdon was a lady who grew up with

her grandparents. Francisoe Blin de Bourdon was born in the year 1756. She was born into wealth,

and did not struggle at all financially. According to the document she started boarding school around

the age of six. "The school was run by the Benedictine nuns of the Abbey Sant Michael in the small

town of Doullens, less than four kilometers from Gezaincourt. Catering to daughter of the

aristocracy, the school was based on a model which prioritized "formation of good wives and            

mothers" (Recker 166)." Julie Billiart life style was little different than Francisoe because she grew

up with poverty and a couple set backs in her life. She did have the same intentions had Francisoe by

helping the world little by little. Julie enjoyed teaching the poor kids in the village news information

of education. Her father owned a shop but at the same time Francisoe was getting ready to leave

the country, her father was robbed. Financially a lot of things went bad for Julie and her family.

When things were becoming good in Francisoe life in the early 20's, Julie began to have bad

moments. Her father was shot anonymously by a gunman. During this moment she was in college,

working and hearing that he father got shot whelp it caused many problems emotionally and

physically speaking. She unfortunately entered a state of paralysis. During these times,  doctors

where ignorant and not really advance with medicine and ways to cure people. Like really, drilling

holes on peoples head because they have a headache or migraine. Or having leaches take out blood.

But overall, they decided to help out the world and kids into poverty. Change the world into a better

place with the guidance of good deeds.
