About Us

The Turkish Welfare Association was established in Marrickville in 1969 under the name ‘Syndey Turkish Association’. As a result of changes, in 1974 it was renamed to the Turkish Welfare Association. The Turkish Welfare Association works to provide support and advocacy for the Turkish Community in Australia. All activities are open to all communities. Helping those with the inability to communicate in English and supporting them through differing pandemics.

We provide counseling, financial support and other services to people who are in need. Primarily focusing on elderly individuals and unemployed young people. This allows us to aid both the future generations to come along with the past generations. Inevitably, allowing the two different generations to work side by side. Follow our Facebook Page to view all the work we are doing to help our people within the community.
