    Purpose, Strategy & Values

    Beyond the pristine beaches, rivers and national parks, the Sutherland Shire ranks among the top regions in N.S.W. on the Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage, meaning that compared to the rest of the state, residents of the Sutherland Shire are sufficiently privileged in the areas of income, education, and employment. Residents of the Shire are typically affluent, middle to upper class, and enjoy access to above average money, education, healthcare, employment, transport, and physical surroundings. However, these facts fail to tell the whole story. Amidst the perceived wealth and privilege of our region, there are tragic stories of incredible suffering and injustice. Among us are neighbours who suffer daily from the effects of homelessness, domestic violence, family breakdown, mental health, and other socio-economic disadvantages in our community.


    Our Purpose

    In a community where privilege often covers the reality of vast pain, Kingsway Care exists to serve the social, emotional, physical and spiritual needs of the Sutherland Shire and surrounding regions. 

    Our Strategic Directives

    To practically love vulnerable individuals and families through housing, personal development programs, and supplying life's basics. 

    We are achieving this by: 

    1. Promoting and facilitating social and individual welfare (PROGRAMS).
    2. Delivering services using a local community neighbourhood model (ENGAGEMENT). 
    3. Promoting public awareness and involvement in social justice matters (ADVOCACY).
    4. Collaborating with social welfare and community organisations to maximise positive outcomes for people in need (COLLABORATION).
    5. Building a sustainable, scalable organisation that applies best-practice principles in its operations (ORGANISATION DEVELOPMENT).

    Our Values

    Our values are built on our christian worldview that is founded on unconditional love for all people. Our experience tells us that consistent and positive outcomes arise as we embody these three values:

    1. Prayer; Everything we do begins in prayer. We trust God for vision, direction, and provision.
    2. Story; We share stories of transformational love and hope.
    3. Justice; We fight for the marginalised and seek to build a better world.


    If who we are and what we're about resonates with you, we'd love to hear from you.

    • Platform Nine

      Platform Nine

      The impacts of domestic violence, homelessness, addiction, unaffordable housing, and family breakdown are driving many in our community to the margins of society. Platform Nine is a community of refuge of hope for those who need it most.

    • Jacaranda Cottage

      Jacaranda Cottage

      Jacaranda Cottage is a refuge for young women aged between 16 and 24 who have become homeless or are at risk of becoming homeless. Our vision is to serve, support and impart hope to young women and see their lives restored.

    • Supplying life basics

      Often the simplest things make the biggest difference. For many, access to a nutritious meal, basic furniture and household items, and school supplies is a luxury that most take for granted. Kingsway Care is committed to serving the community through offering access to some of life's basic essentials.

    • Housing the homeless

      Homelessness is a complex issue with no single solution. However, Kingsway Care is committed to working collaboratively across the health and housing sectors to provide temporary and crisis accommodation for people who have become homeless due to domestic violence, financial hardship, or family breakdown in the Sutherland Shire and Georges River regions.

      "Platform Nine gave us the care and support we needed in a scary and uncertain time. Mum is back at work now, and I'm still studying for my exams. Life's not perfect, but we're safe and that's all this young girl and her mum could ask for." Your support will help Kingsway Care serve and support more people like Jessica and her mum. Please donate today.

      There are currently 23 women, or women with children, who are survivors of Domestic and Family Violence in the Georges River region, and who have become homeless as a result of their situation. These women and children have had nowhere to turn, until now.

    • Southern Cross Kids

      Southern Cross Kids

      Southern Cross Kids is a fun, safe and encouraging environment for children at risk. Through the experience of an annual camp and ongoing monthly Kid's Club events, young people that have suffered trauma can enjoy friendship and fun in a safe place.

    • Personal Development Programs

      The whole of a person matters. Through all of our projects our intention is to empower people to grow in a holistic way and to take ownership for their lives and decisions. We care about people's mental health, spiritual health, physical health, relational health, and their capacity to create for themselves a hope-filled future.
