Grillo was a widow who also part of the Third Order of Saint Francis; she entered the religious life following the death of her husband who died leaving her in a deep depression that came a call to help the poor. Grillo founded a religious congregation that would expand into Latin America and she would also maintain contact with important individuals such as Luigi Orione and Clelia Merloni both of whom she befriended. She was beatified in Turin in 24 of May 1998 and her feast day is commemorated on 25 January.
