Dear Members and friends,
The Meteora Thessalias Benevolent Society was founded in 1962 by migrants from the Meteora region in Greece who came to Australia in search of better opportunities in the aftermath of the second world war. Since then, Meteora has been a beacon of support for the Australian community and as an ACNC registered charity, Meteora is committed to fostering a sense of community and providing a helping hand in times of need.
Welcome to our website, and please see below for some of our latest updates!
