The Congregation of the Sisters of St. Ann, sometimes called the Sisters of Providence of Saint Anne or the Sisters of Saint Anne of Providence, are a congregation of Roman Catholic religious sisters. They were founded by Carlo Tancredi Falletti and Giulia Colbert, the Marquis and Marchioness of Barolo, in Turin, Italy in 1834. In 1871 the first missionaries were sent to India, and various other countries followed, including Argentina, Brazil, Cameroon, Philippines, United States, Peru, and Mexico.
