Grace Community Centre (GCC) was birthed in 1999 with a vision to assist the neediest of communities within society. The organization was registered as a Non-profit Organization (NPO 023-365) in 2002 and subsequently as a Public Benefit Organisation (BPO 930015427), since then it has been aiming to address the needs of the disadvantaged and underserved community.
