Women Franciscan Order that helps animals and the environment?

[karirodrigu0]

Hey there, I'm new on this forum and I was wondering if any of you had information about a Franciscan order for women that helps animals and the environment? I don't think this would be a bit of a stretch since I know St. Francis of Assisi is the patron saint of animals and the environment. I hope you can lead me in the right direction!
