Description

On the 9th September 1962 migrants from the Meteora region who came to Australia in search of better opportunities in the aftermath of the second world war, founded The Meteora Thessalias Benevolent Society, “Meteora”.

With backgrounds primarily in agriculture, trades and homemaking, with little formal education and next to no English speaking skills, Australia was a largely unfamiliar and intimidating place for these new arrivals. Out of this adversity Meteora was formed as an apolitical and completely voluntary charitable organisation with the stated objective of supporting the emotional, social and at time financial needs of its members. It was an organization that assisted its members to cope with the alienation that was common across most migrant groups during 1950’s and 60’s Australia. Additionally it provided a channel through which they could express and celebrate the customs and traditions unique to their part of the world and upbringing, and to introduce these traditions to their children.

At the heart of the organisation is the desire to help people in need. Since its inception, Meteora has donated to various worthwhile causes within their language community and to other higher profile causes such as the Cancer Council of NSW, ESTIA Foundation, Heart Foundation, Cochlear Ear Foundation, the Royal Blind Society and the Breast Cancer Institute of NSW.

The values handed down by the founders, the common thread between the Meteora of old and the Meteora of now is best explained by our current Mission statement:

“To be a trusted friend in the lives of our members, supporting their family, community and charity needs”.
