How to check all of this yourself, on the government registers rather than on our word.

A religious charity, registered as one.

MICYA is registered with the ACNC under a single charitable purpose: advancing religion. Its reasons for doing the work are religious ones, and that is on the public record rather than being something the organisation only says about itself.

The registered name covers both age groups.

The name on the register is Merrylands Islamic Centre for Youth & Adults Incorporated. Both age groups are in it.

A registered name cannot be quietly revised, so this one commits MICYA to serving both age groups rather than treating one as an afterthought.

What we are not telling you yet.

MICYA has not confirmed a founding story, a mission statement or a list of the people behind it for publication.

So none of it is on this page. Writing it from guesswork would put words in the organisation’s mouth.

So there are no participant numbers, no impact statistics, no testimonials, no fundraising thermometer and no list of programs. When those exist and MICYA confirms them, they will appear here with the same sourcing as everything else.

If you are involved with MICYA and can confirm details for publication, please get in touch.
