About – TERESA NUZZO

Our Mission

Teresa Nuzzo Foundation is a Maltese Non Government Organisation . It has been registered with the Malta Council for the Voluntary Sector since 2017 (Registration: VO 1313) to support financially the Congregation of the Daughters of the Secret Heart in their mission and projects both locally and third world countries.

In the year 2009, some Sisters went to Philippines, fulfilling a long-standing dream in order to share our charism of charity in simplicity and humility among these people. As Daughters of the Sacred Heart, we all wish and pray that our missionary spirit will spread the love of the Sacred Heart throughout the world.

Within a few years, the tiny seed grew, and started to bear fruit on the island of Malta. Today, the Sisters in Malta are in school, catechesis, pastoral and social work. The Congregation has spread outside the country. Since 1949, the Sisters have been carrying the same charism, in India.

Today, there are 28 communities which are spread in different dioceses in the North and South regions of India, touching the lives of people through formal and informal education, catechism, orphanage, medical care and social work. The missionary zeal and social commitment was further extended to the African country. In 1968, a group of Sisters went to Tripoli, Libya, and were taking care of the Muslim orphan children, and giving Christian values to foreign catholic children.

In 1980 the Sisters went to Kenya. Now, they educate and care for the street children, and orphans of AIDS victims. As the number of new vocations increased, the East Africa Region opened a new community in Tanzania, in 2004. Whereas in 2015, a community was established in Uganda.
