Organisation Summary

Since 2012, HEAPS (Australia) has matured into a reliable Charity working in remote Papua New Guinea; the Charity has gained public trust through acting justly, transparently and responsively. All allocated funds are sent directly to the PNG Not-for-Profit Organisation, which is based in Wewak township, East Sepik Province. The NGO collaborates closely with its local partners to implement projects, working with the beneficiaries.

The Australian Charity has a wide array of experienced professional volunteers who provide advice and assistance to the people of Papua New Guinea wherever needed. The Board consists of representatives from both countries, who are appointed to fulfil the overarching purpose of the Charity and to promote its success.

The Charity’s objectives are to reduce poverty and involve the needy in decision making to improve their lives and to enjoy their rights, in which all human beings are valued and treated equally, and in doing so, to:
– raise funds to enable positive changes to the lives of people living in poverty and/or difficulty in PNG;
– work directly to alleviate poverty, sickness, and suffering among disadvantaged groups, providing services directly to those in need of relief.
