Welcome to Christ Mission Possible
Christ Mission Possible is a registered non-for profit charity with a heart to help make a positive impact in our community. We are a Christian organisation that is passionate about people, serving and assisting the most vulnerable in our community. We as the Church aim to help be a part of the Solution addressing some of the big issues in society like Poverty, Hunger and Homelessness and so “Food Solutions” and “Housing Solutions” were established.
FOOD SOLUTIONS AND HOUSING SOLUTIONS
Food Solutions provide support to thousands of local people in need on a weekly basis through programs such Brown Paper Bag School Project, Free Food Shops and Street Meals. CMP has fostered strong relationships with Food Retailers, Manufactures and Distributors through which we harvest food that we then provide to the community for those most in need. With no eligibility or assessment process, anyone experiencing food insecurity is welcome to receive assistance.
Housing Solutions provide crisis accommodation in partnership with Department of Communities and Justice to individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
Providing over 60,000 beds nights a year, we are the largest of our kind in Sydney NSW.
CMP also provides additional Housing Solutions through our Accommodation Programs.
Our Accommodation Programs were established to provide safe and secure housing to those in our community effected by homelessness who find it challenging to access mainstream independent housing. Therefore, we provide Tenancy Support to assist clients to maintain and sustain their accommodation, become independent and work towards their long-term housing goals.
