What We Do

The Association is made up of members, volunteers and community workers who work together to address the diverse needs of the Macedonian Community in the Illawarra and wider, stemming from language difficulties, unemployment, ageing and lack of specific services.

Macedonian Welfare Association of NSW conducts its function through co-operation and liaison with mainstream organisations, Australian and Macedonian Governments and non-government departments, agencies and companies for the benefit of the Macedonian community in the Illawarra and wider.
