Partnerships: Project Youth

Project Youth is a Sutherland Shire charity that supports vulnerable young people who need support services in housing; education, employment and training; and early intervention. With over 50 staff and 50 volunteers, Project Youth provides 76 beds across semi-supported, transitional and independent housing.

Our congregation has been supporting Project Youth for over 20 years with regular donations of grocery items that are brought weekly by members to church services. These essential donations to the project’s pantry are always welcome! Our committed volunteers encourage donations, package them up to deliver to the service in Miranda or Menai, and bring back stories of hope and help from the frontlines of need in our local area.
