Since 1962, the Lebanese Muslim Association (LMA) has been a cornerstone of community support and engagement. With over 1,000 members, 400 initiatives, and a dedicated team of more than 40 staff, the LMA plays a vital role in NSW.
Its reach has grown to include a vast spectrum of communities and networks from across NSW, including having three mosques and partnerships with a number of stakeholders and sponsors.
For over 45 years, Lakemba Mosque has been the heart of the local community, drawing thousands of people every week and over 100,000 attendees for major events like Eid celebrations.
As the caretakers of Lakemba Mosque, the LMA not only maintains its legacy but also innovates, making it the first solar-powered mosque in Australia.
