Providing care, shelter, and medical rehabilitation to the destitute, senior citizens, and those in need regardless of caste, creed, or background.
Support Our MissionEstablished in 1974 by the visionary Late Sr. Amelia Cimolino (SCCG) under the Sisters of Charity, Olavina Halli translates literally to the "Village of Love". Located in Kinya near Mangalore, this haven was built to uplift the marginalized, care for individuals suffering from leprosy, and offer safety to the completely abandoned.
We provide a loving home, clean clothes, nutritious meals, and emotional care for over 100 residents who have no other support networks or families to lean on.
The majority of our beloved residents are elderly individuals. We ensure they spend their golden years in safety, comfort, and deep mutual companionship.
We offer specialized medical support and running treatment units, including ongoing care for historical patients of Hansen's disease (leprosy).
Beyond our residential wings, we support localized development by running vocational tailoring classes for young women and managing a local Kindergarten.
