HELPING PEOPLE TO HELP THEMSELVES
HEAPS, a charity assisting PNG our closest neighbor
HEAPS International Foundation (AUSTRALIA) Ltd Charity, registered as a public limited company by guarantee focused on advocacy for Papua New Guinea villages. We seek donations and apply for funding to support an array of village programs aimed at social transformation, improving health, and enhancing quality of life.
Townsville in Queensland is closer to Papua New Guinea than it is to their capital city of Brisbane.
WE CAN GUARANTEE THAT YOUR MONEY GOES DIRECT TO THE GRASSROOTS PEOPLE
Papua New Guinea is home to one of the world’s most ethnically diverse populations.
The country has a collection of hundreds of islands, with more than 800 languages and over 7 million people. The distance from Papua New Guinea to Australia is 2,369.96 km. At its nearest point PNG lies only 5km by Islands from the Australian Territory.
There is rural poverty in remote PNG where people solely depend on subsistence farming, fishing, hunting and other traditional practices to survive.
