Bangalore is an IT city; it has a lot of job opportunities for young people who come from different parts of India in search of jobs. Marie Poussepin’s Home was envisaged with the purpose of providing these young women and also students, accommodation which is secure, affordable and comfortable.
This home is named after our Foundress, Blessed Marie Poussepin, who, inspired by Providence, left home and served the girls and women of Sainville, France. As followers in her footsteps, the community of Marie Poussepin’s Home tries to offer the residents a home away from home by caring for their physical, spiritual, moral and psychological needs. Their concerns become our concerns.

The well maintained garden with variety of plants and trees offers the residents a healthy and attractive atmosphere in this congested city of Bangalore.
