Today, we were honoured to welcome Jess Wilson MP, Leader of the Opposition and Leader of the Liberal Party, together with Frank Schiefler - Liberal for Hastings, the Liberal candidate for Hastings, to the Sikh Volunteers Australia (SVA) community hub.
Jess Wilson acknowledged the significant contribution Sikh Volunteers Australia has made during times of natural disasters and emergencies, recognising the dedication of our volunteers and the spirit of selfless service (Seva) that has become a hallmark of our organisation. She also spoke about the importance of equality, community cohesion, and the values that make Australia a strong and inclusive nation. During the visit, we shared SVA’s future expansion plans and our vision to increase our capacity for food relief, disaster response and community support.
Our team also showcased the historic wagon of Minister Siwa Singh, preserved through the dedicated research and efforts of Len Kenna and Crystal Jordan. Australian Indian History
We sincerely thank Jess Wilson, Frank Schieffler and the Liberal team for taking the time to visit SVA, learn about our work, and engage with our vision for the future. We look forward to continuing to work with leaders from across the political spectrum to build a stronger, more inclusive, and resilient Australia.
