Growing Together
As the Russian-Australian population grew, so did the needs of the community. We expanded our services to include day programs where families could bring their elderly loved ones for activities, care, and social interaction in a familiar environment. Emphasising Russian traditions, food, and religious practices helped our seniors feel connected to their roots.
Despite challenges, including a devastating bushfire that destroyed our facility in Healesville, we remained resilient. With determination and community support, we rebuilt, reinforcing our commitment to serving our elders.
