The Mother Teresa Foundation is a non-governmental charitable organisation working since 2002 for the unwanted, uncared and unloved in the society following the footsteps of St. Mother Teresa. It intensively strives to eradicate poverty, illiteracy and improve upon the health among the underserved. To achieve this goal it works in the fields of education, health, elderly care and upliftment of the disabled and the transgender community. It also addresses starvation by providing free food everyday to the hungry. We collaborate with like-minded service organisations and government agencies in implementing our projects.
