Lucy Kurien is one of the most popular and richest Academic who was born on June 1, 1956 in Kannur, Kerala, India.
Sister Lucy established Maher to help destitute women regardless of caste, creed, or religion. It took almost seven years to get the needed support, but in 1997, the first Maher house opened in the small village of Vadhu Budruk, on the outskirts of Pune.
Currently Maher has 46 short-stay and long-stay homes in the Indian states of Jharkhand, Kerala, and Maharashtra. In total they house over 893 street children, more than 357 destitute women (including 126 mentally ill women picked from the roadside) and 82 aged/mentally ill destitute men. In the short-term, Maher provides immediate shelter and interventions. In the long- term, the community focuses on upending India’s systemic violence, exploitation, and segregation—of men and women, but also of rich and poor. Maher has touched the lives of 85,000+ beneficiaries as of 2017.

However, she was inspired by Mother Teresa’s work and felt called to be closer to the people she wanted to help, directly touching the lives of the poor. In 1989 she joined the HOPE organization, founded by Sr Noilline Pinto of the Holy Cross Convent to help abused women. In 1991, while still working at the Hope, she had an encounter that would inspire her life’s work. A pregnant woman came to her asking for shelter from her alcoholic husband who she thought would beat her. Sister Lucy did not know where to send her since the convent did not take laypeople. She had to send her away but promised to help the following day. That evening, the woman’s husband doused her in alcohol and set her on fire. Both the woman and baby died.

Sister Lucy was absolutely devastated. For six years she struggled to come to terms with this heinous incident and how she couldn’t help. She realized that she had to do something for such women, and the result was the founding of Maher in 1997 in Pune, Maharashtra. She had to single-handedly start Maher as she did not receive backing from anyone. A friend, Fr. Francis D’Sa, helped her with advice and also helped her to find some donors to start a non- Christian organization. Maher is 100% secular. Since its inception, Maher has provided safe refuge and rehabilitation to women who were suffering from abuse, starvation, or neglect.
