What We Do - Delany Foundation

Successive generations of Brothers have continued this service to humanity and Church for over 200 years.

As a legacy to the Bicentenary celebrations of 2008, the Patrician Brothers and friends have created a ‘Delany Foundation’ to support the work of the Brothers in places of great need. No State or Government funding is available in the following settings where the Patrician mission is offering services to the local communities through: Education, Healthcare, Pastoral Ministry and Food and Water.

The Delany Foundation supports worthy causes across Australia.

The two areas of ministry are in education and parish work. Also one Brother is very much involved in vocations work and co-ordinates two “Come and See” experiences over a year. Two Brothers live in the remote village of Laingim, one as a teacher in the community (primary) school there and the other working in the local parishes.
