Our beginnings in New South Wales welfare services

No-one should ever die lonely

We partner with communities to remind people that they are not alone

• Provide a welcoming environment
• Make events as inclusive as possible

• Look out for one another
• Assume that everyone is doing the best they know how to do with the resources available to them.

• Help cultivate a culture where community is uplifted

Two-tone heart - we are stronger when we stand with each other.

White circle - connects the humble beginnings of our past to a future which will never be complete.

Green rectangle - we know that we cannot do everything and what we do, brings life!

We're passionate about offering inclusive, non-discriminatory support. Seeking assistance can be daunting, especially for those identifying as LGBTQIA. We fully welcome, support and celebrate LGBTQIA identities and offer compassionate and effective initiatives, programs and donations to those in need.

MCC Welfare Services began in 1999 following a simple request to Reverend Greg Smith. The request was as follows:

"I am an HIV positive man. I suffer from night sweats and I need a double bed. I have been to two well-known benevolent institutions to ask for assistance and they told me, 'we don't look after your kind here, try somewhere else.' Can you help me?"

Our answer was "YES."

Since then we have helped over 3,000 people.

Our current focus is building social connection to reduce social isolation.
