When was Saint Kateri Tekakwitha canonized?

Katherine Drexel was canonized by Pope John Paul II on 1 October 2000. She was canonized for spending her life and personal fortune in the aid of Native Americans and African Americans in the United States. According to the Vatican it was "her love for the Eucharist, her spirit of prayer, and her Eucharistic perspective on the unity of all peoples; her undaunted spirit of courageous initiative in addressing social iniquities among minorities - one hundred years before such concern aroused public interest in the United States; her belief in the importance of quality education for all, and her efforts to achieve it; her total giving of self, of her inheritance and all material goods in selfless service of the victims of injustice."; that brought about her canonization.
