The facility was established in the 1950’s to meet the medical needs of the local community.
The Maternity Ward requires significant renovation to make it conducive for both the new born babies, mothers and mid-wives.
There is need to fix windows, doors, the roof, ceiling, veranda and water harvesting system at the ward, as well as eventually re-equipping the labour unit.

Due to Covid-19, since March 2020, we shifted from actual physical training sessions (only 5 were conducted in Feb 2020) to online teachers training sessions from 4 June 2020. Online sessions meant 2 hours sessions per day for 3 days followed by online mentoring and assignments sessions for 3 months. This switch to online teaching allowed the project to save on all transportation expenses and number of banners needed. Plus exchange rate benefits and interest provided for extra funds gave an additional amount.
We now will conduct an additional 10 teachers training online sessions (440 teachers) for government aided schools in the same Pune district area plus give certification, awards and recognitions to the top performing schools and teachers.






OneBall is a free community program designed for young people aged between 8-18 years. The program provides opportunities for young people from CALD (culturally and linguistically diverse) backgrounds across Melbourne to play soccer in a social setting and encourages them to:
- be fit and active, and to enhance both their physical and psychological health and wellbeing
- develop positive cross-cultural relationships with others, and
- feel more connected and empowered to make a positive contribution to their community.
