The Maroondah Interfaith Network was formed in November 2009 and provides a forum for Maroondah’s diverse faith-based communities. The Maroondah Interfaith Network was one of the recipients of a $8,800 grant, which will be used by the group to strengthen its capacity and provide professional development.

It is great to see a commitment towards the Maroondah Interfaith Network and the State Government supporting the group and Council in supporting diversity within the community.
