Federal funding commitments for the Adass Israel Synagogue
The City of Port Phillip is pleased to see the recent bipartisan funding commitments from both the federal government and the opposition for the Adass Israel Synagogue. This significant support underscores the importance of preserving our community's cultural and religious richness.
The exceptional funding will ensure that the Adass Israel Synagogue and community centre in Ripponlea, Victoria, undergo comprehensive reconstruction. These funds will guarantee that the synagogue continues to serve as a safe and welcoming place for worship and community activities. As a cornerstone of our local Jewish community, the synagogue plays an indispensable role in fostering spiritual growth, cultural celebration, and communal support.
Council remains committed to fostering a safe and inclusive community. We will continue to collaborate with federal and state governments, as well as the community, to support social cohesion, resilience, and community programs that reflect the diverse needs of the City of Port Phillip. The Adass Israel Synagogue has long been a beacon of faith and community spirit. This funding commitment is a testament to its enduring significance and the vital role it plays in our community. The council will work closely with all stakeholders to ensure that the project meets the highest standards and delivers lasting benefits.
We extend our gratitude to both the federal government and the opposition for their recognition and investment in our community's heritage. This bipartisan support is a powerful affirmation of the value we place on our cultural and religious institutions.
Council looks forward to the positive impact these improvements will have on our community and is dedicated to supporting the Adass Israel Synagogue throughout this transformative process.
