Jesuit Mission Australia

Jesuit Mission Australia celebrated its 75th anniversary with special events in Sydney and Melbourne, bringing together more than 300 supporters, Jesuits, missionaries, volunteers, staff, and friends to honor a legacy of faith, service, and solidarity that began in Hazaribag, a city in the eastern Indian state of Jharkhand, in 1951.

Jesuit Mission Australia is helping young women in marginalized communities across India build better futures through education, employment, and community empowerment programs.

In rural Cambodia, children living with intellectual disabilities are often hidden away, unseen by their communities, excluded from education, and forgotten by a world that does not recognise their worth.

Jesuit Mission Australia is urging renewed support as the humanitarian crisis in Myanmar worsens, with new UN data revealing that over 22 million people—around one-third of the population—are now in urgent need of humanitarian assistance.

Various Catholic religious congregations working in Myanmar are appealing for donations for that country, which is facing ongoing civil war and the aftermath of the recent earthquake that ravaged it.
