Our Vision
|
|
Street Mission is a 100% volunteer based charity operating in northern Sydney. The goal is to bridge the gap in existing community services to support the needs of disadvantaged people by providing food, linkages to other charities, just listening over a meal or offering new experiences that may change lives.

Community and Street Cafes
|
Street Mission operates two cafes for the homeless in Sydney's northern beaches region. The Dee Why community cafe is open on Wednesday nights and the Balgowlah community cafe is open on Saturday nights. We estimate that we serve over 300 meals each month using a 100% volunteer workforce.
The cafes provide a nutritious meal (eg chicken curry and rice, fresh vegetables and dessert) and a supportive, caring atmosphere. Some of Street Mission's clients have been attending for many years. Additionally, warm clothing and bedding is distributed as well as referrals to support agencies.
Many of Street Mission's clients have medical issues and life is tough for them. Our clients include adults and their children. |
