Anna Bornemissza, Princess of Transylvania found it important to aid the Reformed Church. Not only did she aid the church together with her husband, Mihály Apafi I, but she also continued this activity on her own. As a Patrone, she payed particular attention to the Reformed schools. This meant aiding the institution and the teachers, as well as some students. She meant to facilitate education and the spread of Reformed tenets by aiding book publishing. According to the sources, the monarch dealt with the election of the preachers of the estates subject to her supervision, she contributed to their salary in terms of material benefits, as well as benefits in kind. In her estate in Fogaras, she maintained a spital, where she gave food to the needy. Being the First Lady of Transylvania, the role of the Patrone was one of her duties on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was her volunteer task because of her deep religiousness. The presentation of her activities is very timely in the memorial year of the Reformation.
