About FFA  

 
In India

This is the hub of all the activity of the Apostolate. Here at the office located in the Cathedral House, under the direction of the Most Reverend Stephen Athipozhiyil, Bishop of Alleppey, Sister Rita Peter of the Canossian Sisters and her staff distribute the aid to the families sent by sponsors overseas.

The poor congregate at this location to either sign up for assistance or to talk over their problems with the staff. It is indeed a very busy place with always a line of people waiting at the door.
