About Us
Serving and engaging the Muslim community of southeast Melbourne and beyond since 2016.
Answering to the diverse
needs of our community
As the number of challenges only increases, Muslims in Australia need a sanctuary for their Islam. A welcoming place where Muslims and those interested in Islam can strengthen their imaan and grow their Islamic knowledge through guidance and goodness.
OUR HISTORY
Embarking on the PGCC Journey
Our mission is clear: create a welcoming and inclusive space where the community could find not only a place to pray but also a sense of belonging and togetherness. This laid the foundation for what would become a thriving center of spiritual and communal life.
Construction
After a period of planning, fundraising and community support, the dream of building a dedicated community centre became a reality. The construction phase involved the collective effort of volunteers, skilled labourers and community members who worked tirelessly to bring the vision to life.
Time to serve community
Over the years, PGCC has actively engaged in charitable activities, youth and educational programs, and various community initiatives. As we continue to grow, our dedication to serving our community remains at the core of our mission, exemplifying the spirit of unity and benevolence that defines PGCC.
A home for Melbourne’s Muslim community

A centre built for the youth by the youth. We strive to provide initiatives where people, especially young Muslims, can come and learn their deen, enjoy each other’s company, seek guidance and get closer to Allah
Community-oriented
Our plethora of initiatives aim to mould people spiritually and holistically into a beautiful, cohesive community invested in an Islamic worldview
Unity-focused
Our centre is a warm and welcoming place for all Muslims, no matter their age or background, man or woman
