New Hope India Relief Australia Inc | Australian Charity

New Hope is a non Government Organisation, registered with the Indian Government since 1985, and audited annually.

Although New Hope is proud to be an equal opportunity organization we do admit to a special concern for women in need and for children with special needs simply because such children miss out on getting a fair education.
Women HIV+ need special care when they are widowed and socially ostracised. That’s the reality.
At the same time we do have at New Hope in Kottavalsa two senior men who have simply nowhere else to live. One an ex lorry driver became blind and accepted the challenge to stay with us if he changed jobs From lorry driver to washerman (laundry) is a challenge in itself as the Indian caste system makes him low on the ‘pecking order. He now takes care of the clothes for the small boys in the Katagiri Home.

New Hope is a non Government Organisation, registered with the Indian Government since 1985, and audited annually.

New Hope started work in a remote tribal area in western Orissa, India. New Hope is now providing essential medical care and rehabilitation services to thousands of leprosy patients, disabled and homeless children in two states.

New Hope works towards eradicating Leprosy in Orissa and Andhra Pradesh. Other projects include aspects of all development including Leprosy, Tribal areas with Education for Nutrition, Immunization, safe delivery kits, Reforestation of Forests and new farming methods in Tribal villages.

Caring for children, education and vocational training, Reconstructive surgery and Cataract surgery for the elderly and the list goes on! Click on to our activities page for a full description of all our projects.

There is no single answer to change poverty, we work to change the quality of life of the poor and leprosy patients tackling the whole development problem not just a single issue.

New Hope works towards the eradication of leprosy, which is now curable, through early treatment, rehabilitation and education. The remarkable achievements of the Trust are a credit to the generosity and dedication of committed Indians and support in Australia. It started in 1988, and continues with Maggie sister and a fund raising Association “Friends of New Hope India Relief (Aust) Inc.” Registered with the Australian Government in 1994.

Maggie Nolan (Maggie sister) has spent 17 years supporting and nurturing the New Hope community, through its growth from a small community centre with 10 staff to an organization with over 350 staff.
