All are fine. But no comma after ‘project’.
.
But what about these two sentences?
Now he is getting Delhi.
We are beginning a great work.
And is there any difference between
“- He is helping Mary to pack things into a suitcase”
and
“- He is helping Mary pack things into a suitcase”
Thank you in advance.

Now he is getting to Delhi. – Odd but possible
We are beginning a great work.-- Fine
“- He is helping Mary to pack things into a suitcase”
“- He is helping Mary pack things into a suitcase”– No difference; ‘to’ is optional.
.
But is it correct to say
“- He is helping Mary packing things into a suitcase”
“- He is helping Mary in packing things into a suitcase”?
.
The first is wrong; the second is possible but awkward, and would be corrected by a decent teacher.
