The Greek Orthodox Church of Sts Raphael, Nicholas and Irene at Liverpool, Sydney has received a $50,000 grant from the NSW Government’s Safe Places for Faith Communities scheme.
The cheque was formally presented by Labor Party representative Charishma Kaliyanda.
The funds will be used to upgrade security infrastructure around the church and its facilities.
“Thank you Charishma for your support of our community,” the church said in a public statement.
The Safe Places initiative aims to support faith communities across NSW by improving safety and reducing the risk of vandalism, theft, and harm.
