Formerly Mary MacKillop International, the Mary MacKillop Foundation and the Josephite Foundation, we are Mary MacKillop Today. We are committed to continuing the works of the Sisters of Saint Joseph, with the utmost respect for our great past and we look to the future for transformation and change, in the spirit of Saint Mary MacKillop.
Guided by the Gospel, we stand with the poor and the marginalised so they can realise their potential and participate fully in the community. Through access to education and learning of practical life skills, we seek to transform lives.

Through Mary MacKillop Today, the vision of Australia’s first Saint and of the Sisters of Saint Joseph is being realised. In the spirit of Mary MacKillop, we work in partnership to help create generational change through the teaching of practical life skills to women, men and children in Australia and beyond.
We work with local communities in Australia and internationally through learning for life and enabling access to learning opportunities in the areas of education, health, financial inclusion and livelihoods to share practical life skills for self-sufficiency.
