Mary MacKillop Today is an international development organisation working in Australia and overseas. We build partnerships that create opportunities for self-determination through education and the teaching of practical life skills to women, men and children. Established in 2018, we continue the legacy of a 150-year-old ministry founded by Saint Mary MacKillop. We are proudly continuing the works of the Sisters of Saint Joseph, transforming lives through learning for life so that all may flourish. We directly manage and implement programs with a range of local partners in Australia, Timor-Leste, Fiji and Peru in the areas of education, health, financial inclusion and livelihoods. We stand with the marginalised poor in rural and remote communities, so they can realise their potential. Our work is funded through the generosity of individuals, schools and parishes, trusts and foundations and government grants. Mary MacKillop Today is a registered charity, a member of the Australian Council for International Development and is accredited by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), responsible for managing the Australian Government’s development program. Mary MacKillop Today receives support through the Australian NGO Cooperation Program (ANCP).
