Bro. Bob SJ and Bro. Ignatius SJ, founded Jesu Ashram on June 15th, 1971. The purpose was to serve the sick, poor and destitute.

The first Ashram was started in Gurung Basti, Siliguri Pradhannagar. The place was very small, and the patients number was increasing. Bro Bob decided to look for a bigger place to house them all in Matigara. Sr. Xavier Clare accompanied Bro. Bob in his search. Sr. Ivana joined Bro. Bob to work in Jesu Ashram.
