Cronulla Community Cafe Serving Those In Need for 16 Years

Nestled in the back streets of Cronulla, you will find the Cronulla Community Café (New Beginnings Uniting Church). The Cronulla Community Café has been serving the people in need in our community for 16 years.

Every Wednesday, they provide a no-cost food service…plus opportunity to have a chat and grab a few essentials.

The café also has a boutique! This is a perfectly curated collection of second hand items, from books to house hold gadgets that guests can access - free of charge!

Volunteer Sue says ‘They love coming. It is an opportunity for them to browse. We go to David Jones and they don’t do that sort of thing, because they don’t have that price range.’.

The service is provided by a wonderful team of volunteers, who give their time and effort every week; they set the room, prepare lunch, serve meals and offer invaluable time to the guests.

The café receives donations from the community (such as personal items, clothing and book) and local businesses. Bakers Delight Cronulla and Lilli Pilli Patisserie provide bread and baked items for the guests to enjoy week in-week out.

Groceries are a major necessity for the café attendees. Unfortunately of late, limited storage has meant that the café hasn’t been able to offer this part of their regular service. Their storage room is in desperate need of renovation. Volunteers are currently raising funds to have this completed. Once the storeroom is finished, they can resume offering their guests pantry items and fresh fruit & vegetables.

If you are keen to support the Cronulla Community Café, key donations required are new/unopened personal items (toiletries) and new/unopened mens & womens underwear.
