Home > About MPPH
MPPH was founded in March of 2006 as a not-for-profit, mortgage industry-based, charitable foundation. Our goal is to provide food, water, shelter, education, medical services and hope for the impoverished children and families of rural India. It is only through the collective help of giving, dedicated and committed mortgage professionals that we can hope to accomplish our goals of bettering the lives of children who have no access to basic social services and physical necessities.

The MPPH Board of Advisors is comprised of a group of well respected, high integrity leaders in the mortgage industry who have voluntarily committed their time, talents and resources to further the mission of MPPH.  These generous individuals have taken the lead in shaping the standards of our industry through the advancement of charitable giving.
