Minto, South West Sydney
Free food, free programs and a place to land, for anyone in South West Sydney. Twenty-five years of it, run by the community for the community.
Who we are
South West Multicultural and Community Centre is a not-for-profit run from a small building in Minto. We have been here more than twenty-five years.
What we do is not complicated. We put on a meal and sit down with people. We run programs that young people actually want to turn up to. We work with families coming out of the hardest years of their lives. And we do it across every culture in South West Sydney, because that mix is the whole point.
What we run
Free or low cost, open to everyone, no referral needed. If you are not sure which one fits, call us and we will work it out with you.

Numbers the centre keeps, because funders ask and because they are worth saying out loud.
Before the program I wore hi-vis and worked as a labourer. Now I am employed by the Department of Education, I have been a White Ribbon ambassador, and I started a campaign to stop young people fighting.
From the centre
The small practical things nobody thinks to tell you.
Short version: yes, bring them.
What is in them, who can get one, and what you need to bring.
