Welcome
"Maher" in Marathi, an Indian language, means ‘Mother’s Home’, a haven of hope, belonging and understanding, where women not only feel love and comfort but are assured of security.
“There is a huge task awaiting us, the task of changing the attitude of society, especially of men towards women.This is a gigantic task. Maher is therefore not just a project, it is a vision of a new society where men, women and children have opportunities for growth education and happiness.” Fr. Francis D’sa
MAHER: A vision where, through sheer love, understanding and caring, distressed and traumatized women and children from rural India, are given hope and the right to a better life, irrespective of caste, creed or religion.
At Maher we firmly believe there’s always room for one more.
